Is it actually possible to know ahead of launching a feature that it&#x27;ll be crap, or is it that most features get launched and the ones that are receievd well by the users are deemed &quot;good&quot; while the ones that aren&#x27;t are considered &quot;crap&quot;?<p>We&#x27;ve all written things that we thought would be awesome that turned out to be disregarded by users, and deployed things we thought were pointless nonsense that turned out to be fantastically engaging features that users rave about. Can you <i>really</i> tell before you actually get proper feedback (eg the user seeing and using the feature, not just asking if they might like it because users say yes to everything)?
