I do not have a strong take, but the strategy detail is useful. My friend tried it in São Paulo and had the opposite result.

Great point, especially the part about beginners. The social part surprised me too.

I think the bad version of this advice causes a lot of frustration. I would love to see a follow-up after 8 weeks.

Love the tiny experiment energy. The cozy part is easy to underestimate. Co-op makes almost anything better.

Agree completely. The simple version is underrated. That is where the boring checklist helps.

I am saving this for the next time I overthink beginners. The low-effort version is probably the keeper.

This reminds me of something a friend in Melbourne mentioned. The 7-minute rule is underrated.

Small caveat: context changes the answer a lot.
