The productivity of N people is usually not N times that of 1 person but usually less.
There is another post on new right now that had me riled, it was "just another" non-technical person looking for a technical founder.
I was going to tear his head off but I choose you.
I am involved in one side project with other people who contribute something, listen to what I have to say, and help me do what I could not do myself.
I have worked with other people that pump in entropy faster than I could possibly pump it out. I find that terribly exhausting. I think there are many people who think they could get status if only they were involved in a successful project but they're allergic to the reality of matter and energy. If I have the fight those bozos then I lose my passion for the project and even to wake up in the morning.
I just nuked my LinkedIn account because it brought so many people like that who drag me down. The best news is I am close to paying off my home equity line after skipping work for a while to try to sell stuff with a salesman who couldn't sell.
I feel that - I was working solo for a good bit. Then decided to start collaborating with other devs. It comes with its challenges. But I do think it can be worth it if the project is large enough and the devs you collab with know what they're doing and can self-guide.

Second this definitely.
