@collinsworth Having worked in a big (multi-billion dollar, hundreds of millions of concurrent users) I concur so hard.

Scale is a trap.

I am, at this point, something of an expert of doing a lot with very very little, and this is the skillset I am the proudest of.

@ajroach42 @collinsworth we call this "scale" yet this doesn't scale, Big Tech serves primarily shareholders at the expense of everyone else. When we have technology that actually scales it means putting power back in the hands of you and me, serving stakeholders interests, on our terms.

@collinsworth @ajroach42 Scale is also a moat. If the right way of building something costs thousands a day, a couple of university students and their professor won't come along and take out an existing company
