I think we need to support bootstrappers and give them more visibility and credit vs all these VC backed companies
This week there is, for example, a popular app update for Amie and it gets lots of attention on Twitter
It got $7 million for a calendar app SAAS lol.
Issue also that VCs in majority want money out of you more than anything else so we end up seeing only success in how much startups earns and it’s often something B2B where a bigger corporation pays smaller company because they’ve got insane money in their accounts in the first place
