Comment on Ask HN: Can I compete?

Comments

It's near impossible to find anything with zero competition. If you think you can build and market it, do it. You never know what direction your competition is going to take.

I'm working on project that would have been in direct competition with a YC funded company. Then they were bought by Twitter and dissolved a month before my launch date.

Thank you for your response! I really do want to try to build this thing, and it helps to hear that just because I'm up against a huge obstacle, doesn't mean I can't do it.
