The BEST type of tech company

Transcript

My favorite type of company are those that rely mostly on like enterprise grade revenue and then they kind of leave the small solo developer alone and you really don't pay much for anything. For example, I've been using Cloudflare a lot recently and in fact, I have an entire side project now that is pretty much entirely on Cloudflare. From like emails to the backend database, everything is Cloudflare. And these guys don't even have my credit card information and it's gonna stay that way for a while. How are they even like I've been using it so much and it's so good. Like I was able to add video and audio calling to an application with Cloudflare in like seconds and I haven't paid these guys anything anyway. If you have any more of these types of companies that are like super generous, let me know. I would probably put Posthog in this bucket because I've been using them across almost every project I've ever done on mobile and on web and I still haven't paid them $1. So shout out to you all these guys.
