@iquaanyin@mastodon.social @mmasnick looking back, that was a bad call. After we integrated all the Zite functionality into Flipboard we wanted to focus on advancing one product together. While it was indeed helpful for internal focus we failed to understand that people loved Zite specifically and didn’t care if we had those features in Flipboard. Lesson learned: people’s love for a feature or product is important to preserve and build on, even if it’s not ideal internally.
