This is sad to me. This guy seems to have written a genuine post about growing his business to $400 MRR [1], but it leads with self deprecation, and then he follows it with this take down of... himself?
Louis, I don't know you, I've not come across Cloakist before, but you've done something solid here, and MRR is truly a long slope of soul crushing growth and you're playing the game fine. Keep it up. Five months in on Cronitor we were at $410 MRR.

- louisbarclay 6y agoThanks a lot! Just to clarify, I’m not taking myself down (I’m really happy with where Cloakist is at) - I just felt like writing some satire to mock all similar serious articles in that genre, including my own. And congrats on the awesome work at Cronitor!
