I'm glad you're coming to find out there are individual preference in the world. That's like saying, "It's so depressing, people are still driving cars even though they have killed countless people. Such a strong si

If you don't need distribution then sure host it on S3, or Vimeo, or anywhere really. If you need distribution, you're going have to find it somewhere and Youtube is a great place for that. Or you could build up an audience on so

You're spot on. All of the things the GP mentioned have people literally fighting political battles to continue enjoying them. I find the GP's thinking common with people who haven't experienced friction doing "normal&qu

I'm not affiliated with either site. Just thought it was cool. I don't think one could argue that building an MVP/SMB on a platform is more buggy than a 1-2 man shop building from scratch, though. At least not in the same amo

I think the problem is that you don't need a "mature" product to make millions of dollars. It's similar to Shopify, I can put up a store in ~20 mins and start selling immediately. I would be extremely misguided to try to

I can't afford to pay for all the stuff I use. FB, IG, YT, etc would cost a fortune. I'll happily watch my ads, thanks.

Totally, take out all the hospitals, education and basic needs for the rest of the innocent people. Or just nuke them, that will teach um. On a serious note, sure retaliate, probably don't hurt innocent people.

"It's a necessary condition that businesses cover their expenses and maybe make a little profit." aka make money. I think your analogy is right on. If I don't eat then I don't live. If I don't make money, my bu

So interesting that people assume that companies will stay in punative enviroments. If there is a risk that a country is going to fine me 30b instead of 2b, I will just go to another country. Just like everyone does with taxes (Apple to Ire

You're 100% right. I just wouldn't give the advice that you should "open source it because it's better than it going in the trash" after a little bit of trying. Business is hard.

Sorry, I am using social proof in the business context, not the academic context. When people use it in a business context, they typically mean "I don't know if I can trust this company, therefore, I can use my friends/commun
