This is an insightful comment. Just to add, once you allow contributors to the project, you add a whole other set of tasks that have to be performed. You have to become a project manager, and your mental model of the project becomes disrupted due to changes made by other people. I can fully sympathize with wanting to build an MVP before sharing.
Side note: I have no idea who this person is or what his history is. I’m just adding my opinion based on personal experience.





I remember one time being on vacation when the battery in my toothbrush died and I didn’t have my charger. I had started to get up to go down to the shop in the hotel lobby, and then realized I’m an idiot.
