A lot of bootstrappers are trying to avoid fitting into an existing category (because they don't want to be compared to competitors). That's actually what you want: a slow-moving incumbent, who's already cleared the trail for you.

Ok, I really like your insights on learning to spots waves of demand rather than create them. But when you narrow that to "just build products that literally already exist and customers are looking/paying for them already" I think that's just bad advice.

I don't understand this "literally just be a copycat" hobby horse of late. If anything the big problem with entrepreneurs' ideas these days is too many are rushing headlong into a crowded market with an undifferentiated product and no unfair advantages.

I never said “literally just be a copycat.” If Basecamp just copied Microsoft Project, they wouldn’t have succeeded. Their advantage is they could come behind Microsoft and say: “you should switch from Project to us because of X, Y, Z.”

a very substantial number of founders (incl me) are reading the sum of your content as advocating for literally just re-building the exact products people are already searching for and paying for.

I agree. Knowing Justin, I know he means well and is not trying to tell people to be a copycat. But I have to say these days I find myself filling in a ton of asterisks if I were to recommend his content to others new to him
