What was the point of this statement: "If we keep expecting underfunded and under-resourced parties to come up with software ready and with absolute feature-parity over what is being pushed by the companies that have time, money and marketing teams"?
My counterpoint is: Signal started as any startup. Now it basically defines e2e encryption. Why can't other "underfunded and under-resourced parties" do similar things?
- rglullis 6y agoBecause "defining e2e encryption" is the case of building a feature and not a product, and a startup creating a novel feature is a lot easier than bringing a whole product with feature-parity against the dominant market leader?
