Find a movie to watch in 3 minutes."The Problem That Wouldn't Leave" As a kid, one TV channel. I complained. Got DishTV, hundreds of choices. Felt like freedom. Then college, OTT, and suddenly I'm spending 40 minutes choosing what to watch. Choice paralysis is real. And it gets worse with two people. "What do you want to watch?" "I don't know, what do YOU want?" Twenty minutes of this and someone just gives up. I picked this as my Flipkart APM deck problem. Evaluated 5 to 7 options, talked to a bunch of people. One friend was blunt: "The others are stupid. This one is lesser stupid." That conviction got me in. Built an awesome product deck titled, "Solving Choice Paralysis for Netflix". And now 4 years later, I actually built the thing : CineMatch. Two people? swipe on movies independently, it finds the overlap. Just you? swipe on movies and it nudges you when enough good finds. Inshort dekho simple chiz hai ye, it is like Tinder, but for movies. Give it a shot! (link in comments) But the point I wanted to make was, Not every decision needs your strong optimisation skills. Choosing what problem to solve? Worth every hour of brainstorming. Choosing what movie to watch on a Friday night? Just find a good one man. All options we have are already awesome choices :) Would love to know your thoughts!
