4 years ago@Olivaw the thing is, agilebits doesn’t care about you. I didn’t realize it until I started reading up on the company but they took venture capitalist money and now need to constantly grow. Per their AMA, they released 1password 7, the first paid standalone upgrade in 5 years and got very few people upgrading from 6 and couldn’t keep running their business in a way that would keep expanding quickly enough for the VCs.
Once you take VC money, the only that thing that matters is short-term growth. Else since the VCs control the board, they oust the CEO and implement their own leadership who will prioritize short-term growth over all else. ROI is the name of the game.
When 1password 7 stand alone license flopped, instead of looking in the mirror and saying “maybe we didn’t provide enough value for the price of the 7.0 release, maybe we hired too many developers, maybe our operating costs are too high” they instead said, “stand-alone software licenses are broken, we need SaaS”
It’s very similar to incels who don’t shower, don’t dress well, don’t eat well, don’t exercise, and then women don’t want to date them. But there’s something wrong with women! How dare women not date them? Something must be fundamentally wrong with dating!
