Depends on what you're building, why you're building it, and how you're wired naturally. I guess I reject the question, because answers inherently contain lots of projection and not advice.
Could easily flip the responses around:
-
lack of conviction of what you're building means you need a daily attaboy from internet strangers with no skin in the game
-
fearing people might think you have something to hide so overcompensating with platitudes of transparency
-
fear of being out-maneuvered by competitors and so planting a decorative flag without even having shipped
Given that Steve Jobs is looked back upon as founder-Jesus, does anyone really think he paid any mind to what internet strangers would have thought about his products before the unveil?
Reality is the overwhelming majority of projects will die in obscurity, public or not. So all focus ought be simply not dying.
