I'm that perfectionist and it is constantly preventing me from shipping. Basically everything I'm working on requires me to cut losses at some point because it would take twice or three times as long if done perfectly and there is no guarantee that it is actually perfect in the end.
I don't really feel it collapsing under the weight of unmaintainable spaghetti tech stacks, I'm mostly thinking that writing the missing features of the tech stack would require months of work and hard thinking that in the end might simply get rejected and now I would be stuck maintaining it myself so nothing has changed other than that there are even more things to maintain.
All of this for the sake of clean architecture that seemingly has no impact on users in the end... Like the users complain about completely different things.
