There is one more lesson here. Sorry if this is a bit OT and I don't know Colin but the lesson is "be good at one thing and crush it."
It's good that he has dedicated a big part of time to just one thing: backups (and things related to backups). And that's why he is best at it and has billion dollar companies like Stripe giving him testimonials. Had he spent his time on 20 different things, chances you wouldn't think of tarsnap when you think backups.
This I feel is also a very common trap of entrepreneurship (especially for solo people).
