And those paying clients won't want to influence the direction the project is taking?
- simonw 4y agoThat's described in the article: > it boils down to this: I go in, meet the engineers, and learn what parts of my projects they use and how; then, I keep those use cases in mind in my own planning and I reach out and involve them for feedback when there are relevant changes on the roadmap. This improves outcomes for everyone: I want my projects to work well for users (regardless of whether they are paying me) and no one wants to find out something’s wrong after the release. That model is expanded on here: https://words.filippo.io/dispatches/reciprocal/ https://words.filippo.io/dispatches/reciprocal/
- manmal 4y agoThanks for pointing that out. It's certainly more pleasant to work that way vs normal freelancing.
