It depends on the resources you have at hand. While B2B launches can get away with minimal aesthetics, B2C industry verticals like fashion, beauty and cosmetics, hospitality etc. lay a high importance to aesthetics.
If you have to prioritize one over the other, prioritize functionality where it directly addresses critical user needs and pain points. Invest resources in developing features that solve the core problems your target audience is facing. By addressing fundamental functionality first, you ensure that your MVP provides tangible value to users.
The intent of the MVP is always to gather early feedback on your hypothesis. Pay attention to whether users prioritize aesthetics or functionality in their feedback. Use this insight to inform resource allocation decisions and prioritize enhancements that align with user preferences.
