Our readingLearning about users comes from direct contact with them, not from dashboards or support tickets.
Their wordsThis learning doesn’t come from dashboards, support tickets, or any of the other mechanisms we’ve developed as proxies for proximity to the people we’re building for. It comes from contact: watching someone use the thing you built, seeing how they react, and ensuring that directly informs what you do next.
