Why not Fail in Public?

Question

We are always ready to build in public, but why can't we fail in public?

Why can't we share failure stories of our products and help others learn what mistakes one shouldn't make?

@shushant_lakhyani totally... its human nature to learn from other people's mistakes...

I believe sharing failure is not bad; it shows that you're still trying, learning, and growing. Sharing failures and mistakes encourage people and help them to come out of their troubles.

Clement Surry · Answer

The same reason as to why heroes exist. People want to hear the success stories rather.
