Erez's "Who are you?" moment

  • Erez didn't realize the existing ErgoDox community when he launched his crowdfunding campaign.
  • Others questioned his legitimacy, asking "where have you been?" since the ErgoDox wasn't new.
  • Erez's conversation with Jesse from Keyboard.io provided a new perspective, helping him understand the community's suspicion.
  • Jesse told Erez that from the communities perspective he was acting like "the asshole" by just showing up out of nowhere claiming to build an ErgoDox.
  • Erez later realized how his sudden appearance could be perceived as suspicious, especially within an established community.
