The concept of Minimum Viable Product (MVP) is often resulting in half-baked products that nobody loves.
MVPs are too basic, ugly, confusing, and do not engage users effectively.
Instead of focusing on viability, the emphasis should be on creating emotional connection and loveability through a polished UX/UI and strong user engagement.
A great example of a Minimum Lovable Product (MLP) is Slack, which gained popularity due to its fun and delightful user experience.
