Why do I feel more in my element when I build products that don't make money?
Charging for something definitely changes the entire dynamic. There's a lingering pressure to provide clear value that doesn't stop.
With free products, there's a sense of creative freedom. Of course the goal is to still provide value, but you're not really constrained in doing so.
I think there is still opportunity to build a for-profit product in this space that gives you a warm and fuzzy feeling, though.
Lots of "Ikigai" vibes from this post! Thanks for sharing, Jason.
