But the business reality is a different story. Three years later, the MRR isn't even enough to cover a single developer's cost of living. I’m constantly caught in a loop between "this is too good to give up" and "this isn't a viable business."
I’m torn between pushing forward and calling it quits. If you had a technically superior product that wasn't converting into a sustainable business after 3 years, what would your "red line" be?

But more importantly, I think it is the product itself, the market is probably does not appreciate that much of "customization / personalization" as I thought, in other words, we are probably haven't figured out the best path to get the ideal users yet.
In the other side, free users do not have this issue. We do have free tier which counts for 1/3 of all active users.
