Never give up on a space just because others are already building in it. Real opportunities are often hidden in narrower niches, where many practical needs are still not fully served. In many cases, doing one thing exceptionally well is already enough to create real value.

Most people do not lack ideas. They lack execution. If someone keeps repeating the same idea for months without shipping an MVP, be careful where you invest your time.

People who truly want to build usually ship a minimum viable version first, then discuss collaboration.
