Putting customer first depends on who is your customer and what do they want. People don't come here to "Tweet", they come for sovereignty, censorship-resistance, zaps and fun... And to watch this space grow.
We are not building a "Twitter, but...". We're building another way to interact with data, relationships, ... That's the product. Is it for everyone? No, but the few of us who value this are great customers of this service.
