How can you give lessons on "the right way" of achieving product-market fit if you haven't yourself achieved it? If you have indeed achieved it with Dawdle, but a lack of technical ability is holding you back, isn't it a no-brainer to go into debt and hire a programmer?

Calling you out is a pyrhhic victory. With respect to strategy and tactics, I think that we need to listen only to people who have actually succeeded. I want you to succeed, so you can write about it, so I can succeed.
