I really couldn't agree more on this topic. In addition, beside the huge motivational effect of building something useful that you want to have for yourself, in my experience you´re also automatically making sure that the user experience is right and you really love the product. So it´s kind of a switch from "I need to build this for this user-guy to work with" to "I want to craft this in a way, so I can love it."

Sumup: Being your own user enables you to convert user experience from just useable to lovable.

Hi Creyels, thanks for your comment.

Yep, it's absolutely this same switch you are describing her towards a "I want to craft this in a way, so I can love it." and making the bridge from usable to lovable is exactly my goal.

Glad you liked it :)
