I know it’s popular to say “Ideas are easy. Execution is everything,” but I disagree. If ideas are so easy, why are most business ideas so bad? The opportunity you identify, and focus on, matters a lot.

“I’m working on an idea for a new app.” If you’re reasonably good at execution, what matters is *whether people want what you’re building.* That speaks to the strength of the idea.

Execution (and validation is a part of execution)

Pedantic, but I'd argue when an author says "I have an idea for my next book" the success of that book largely depends on the combination of their reputation and their sales/marketing channels. The success of their book *after* that depends on the concept they've chosen in this.

That's because people buy stories from storytellers. People buy apps from app makers too, but the filter of "is this for me?", is higher when purchasing an app from an app maker than purchasing a story from a storyteller.

1 - I think the idea that “ideas are cheap” was expressed/endorsed early on by investors, who see lots of ideas and therefore may have a skewed perspective 2 - Some of the evidence you’re citing (eg Product Hunt) supports the idea that supply >> demand for ideas

Not sure what you mean in 2.
