Much like people complaining about digital video games and how McDonald's manages to stay in business; never assume your preference is the same as the average of consumer behavior.

this needs to be higher. The number of people who think that their anecdotal personal preferences are the norm when they clearly are not is ... staggering. About basicaly any topic.

Always see comments on market for small phones and women’s pants with big pockets, both of which don’t seem to have large markets in real life.

People complain that there aren't phones with replaceable batteries and headphone jacks, but then refuse to buy the ones that actually have those.

Because it's like 35 people with notifications anytime a social media post pops up on the topic so they can spam their cries.

Then the phone is released and only sells 35 units.

Nahhhh women want pants with pockets most women’s pockets are either fake or too small to fit a hand. Small phones sure there’s not really a market for that, but women’s pants with functional pockets?? That company would make a lot of money
