This post by Bear creator Herman Martinus is great. I probably could’ve written the same thing about Micro.blog but with a few twists. It’s always been about slow growth and lasting decades. Ben Werdmuller also has some good counterpoints about funding.
Rene van Belzen I also believe that the urge to grow fast is mostly about outcompeting competitors, never about empowering users, quite the opposite, the user is told what to do, literally, with a prompt in a box.
