Are MVPs dead? (alien.top)

I can't help myself to think that nowadays, products UX/UI level is so high, that even for B2B products, people have expectations.

I would certainly not use a product that looks and feels crappy even if it solves my needs.

I could possibly don't see how it solves my needs if it does it in a crappy way too.

What are your thoughts?

Somewhere MVPs became: a static landing page with a newsletter signup form and a "coming soon" lie.

I hope this kind of MVP dies.

But i don't believe an actual MVP should look like it was built by a high-schooler. It's about delivering just enough functionally to add value. You can write decent CSS for it in a day or two, especially with tools like Tailwind and Bootstrap (or even rolling your own, really).
