On: My solopreneur story

Back in the day of low hanging fruits, stories like this were very common on HN. I think it’s harder for software developers to attain this kind of success today, and as a result they have developed an allergy to capitalism.

Well of course it’s hard since they made all their software available for free to corporate communes. Instead they should charge anyone earning > idk 1 million in revenue a fee. I know these freeloaders (amazons, microsofts, and apples) expect our hard earned money and code for free but i think it would be fair to make them start paying.

Then you’d get more indie software developer success stories.

There are recent software licenses, which are interesting to use for exclusively permitting worker owned, cooperatives or individuals

One called anti capitalist another with another more marketable name

Of course license holders are also free to resell their work under other private per customer licenses in addition to the open source one
