I hate that every useful application (Dropbox, Zoom, Zencastr, etc) wants to be an all-encompassing platform. Just stop. Make your core product great, charge for it, and get out of the way.

@sfoskett All this! Was a paid subscriber of Dropbox and Zoom and dropped them both when they polluted their product so badly with kruft.

@sfoskett The more services you offer, the more difficulty clients have in moving. Switching search engines is pretty easy. Switching away from Office 365 means changing So when MS told charities they'd get free Office 365, the charities joined. Then it stopped being free, and charity-money now goes to MS, because they're not going to move.

@sfoskett it's like once they have a Golden Goose, they want it to stop laying eggs and somehow start spending its time giving inspirational speeches on golden egg laying to regular geese instead |
