It’s an MVP. It doesn’t have to work.
- assafmo 7y agoSo what does viable mean?
- dpwm 7y agoIt's conceptually viable; it's just not materially viable yet. In all seriousness, I seem to remember that there was a practice of testing for viability using very similar means – basically, are people interested enough to click through, then collect emails. So perhaps this is a path to demonstrate viability by questionnaire.
- idiocratic 7y agoAn MVP should consist of the minimum work required to test an hypothesis. In this case the hypothesis is: "People would buy a browser if it offers an ad-free experience". So it's viable according to that idea. Viable doesn't mean useful though :)
- rusk 7y agoIt's not MVP it's a Kite [0]. Minimum Viable Product is an actual "thing you can use", not mere concept. It's more than a prototype. The term implies it's something you can actually ship to customers. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trial_balloon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trial_balloon
