Ask HN: how do you conduct market research?

When I think about the side projects that I have abandoned in the past, most of them didn't work out because I ended up finding that the market was more saturated than I thought, or that my service did not fix a common enough problem.

Talking to consumers and businesses (when I can make this happen, which is rarely) so far has resulted in me hearing about problems that already have lots of solutions online. I would like to be able to interview more consumers/businesses, but that has been difficult to orchestrate.

How do you decide what to build, and whether or not that thing is worth building?
