It’s not about being doom and gloom. It’s the opposite of being small-minded.

I like all of the above use cases you suggested, I like science advancements. I’m sure this will help plenty.

But, at the same time, we should be really careful and aware of what we’re creating.

Vitamins can def be super successful, as you mentioned. Agreed.

I think that with Mighty it's just the combination of being an expensive product (mainly to operate, but to some extent for the end customer as well) + privacy concerns + most people don't suffer that much from slow browsers and instead willing to pay $20/30 a month to solve it.

Pretty niche market, I think. But might be mistaken...

I don't think it's M1 that killed it.

Probably high server costs and being a vitamin and not a painkiller killed it.

Also, people are not too happy about giving away their browser history data to server-side powered browsers.

That being said, it's still sad to see startups fail. Hopefully they'll have better luck with their new direction. Fingers crossed!

Wow, exciting news!

Congrats Garry. Feels like a John Frusciante comeback.

Really hoping to be part of the W23 batch.
