What are some examples of good user research questions that helped you in your product journey?

@eonpilot curious how you ask that question directly (do you? or is there a way you ask this indirectly?). My experience has been that people mostly consider all their problems as "painkillers" and need immediate solutions.

@rakesh1 Painkillers are things you can't do without. The painkiller is different for different users. paying for slack is a nice to have for a startup, but not essential. So they dont pay for it, other things are more important. But for a law firm where they need to be able to lookup old threads in history, slack is a painkiller and they pay for it. Some day that startup might have the same pain and start to pay for it. I guess there isn't a perfect Turing complete question for is it a painkiller or nice to have. But it's the most important question in startup IMO. And a question people dont really think about enough.

@rakesh1 You are welcome. Teaching is learning, learning is teaching 😇

Thanks @svitlana_palamarchuk. Thinking about it, asking for a recent example should force people to think deeper and not talk about some imaginary problems. Very helpful.
