Are you building features or killing features (i.e. simplifying your products)?

Just yesterday I prevented my team from adding an exotic feature to our product.

My hypothesis is that people don't like many features in a product as that complicates the product adoption e.g. many sales guys hate CRMs for this reason. In that sense, more features might equate to no features as users don't adopt/use the product. So, minimalistic products that solve 1 big problem (80% of the problem pie) is what people like.

That's what I think.

I would like to hear from the product hunt community on what their experiences have been?
