EVERY FEATURE SHOULD EARN ITS PLACE

Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

Building a feature has never been cheaper. Carrying one is just as expensive as it's ever been. Every addition makes the product harder to learn, harder to maintain, and harder to evolve, and products rarely fail for lack of features. They fail because they accumulated too many that nobody had the discipline to kill. When execution gets cheap, the right response isn't to ship more, it's to raise the bar for what gets to stay.
