Do you know that it is the same people holding these conflicting stances?
Seems like HN is a big place, room enough for both cheap devs and more well-heeled devs.
- brtkdotse 6y agoNope, just some good ol’ generalizin!
- imwillofficial 6y agoHahahha well, what do you think? Is this too pricey for what you get? Or do you feel it’s a unique buy that’s worth it?
- jdxcode 6y agoI admire your honesty!
- mercer 6y agoIntuitively I'd guess that they're very different audiences. I'm sort of near the type of person who would shell out for ease-of-use stuff like the same theme across editors, but also the type of person who would even want that. I suspect a person similar to me would also pay a bunch of bucks for, say, a screen arrangement app for MacOS, or a way to more quickly pair AirPods (ToothFairy). It's a type of user that has no problem paying for convenience, I suppose? That said, $79 is too steep for me to pay for a set of themes, even though I do really like this one.
- darrenoc 6y agoThere is a large contingent on HN who are both rich and cheap, so I don't think this holds any water
- imwillofficial 6y agoAccording to your made up metrics?
