That's often the case, and it's a reason why being poor can be expensive. Poor people are more likely to rent the capital they need to work.
In my country I've seen people rent cars, rent a smartphone, and literally rent someone else's Uber account just to work as a driver.
If Mighty had developed their product for ancient Windows laptops instead of Macs, they would have had millions of customers. It still wouldn't be profitable, because they'd be very poor customers.
- LoganDark 4y agoMighty? (Sorry, it's impossible to Google-search that term.)
- saint_fiasco 4y agoMighty is (was?) a company that made a cloud service that let you use a Chrome extension to remote into a powerful computer so that you could have hundreds of tabs open without slowing down your computer. Sounds silly, but suppose you are a starving artist whose ancient laptop can't even run Photoshop. It might make sense to remote into a powerful computer that can run Google Chrome, then from that computer use a web-based Photoshop replacement like Figma. Unfortunately the people at Mighty chose to focus on Mac users, because they had to impress wealthy investors to get them to invest, and those investors are Mac users. https://www.mightyapp.com/ https://www.mightyapp.com/
