you don't understand how technology companies work. they're not always making money

[-] 257m@sh.itjust.works 14 points 4 months ago

yeah but there is a difference between losing some money on R&D and simply having an unviable business model.

[-] areyouevenreal@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago

Would people on Lemmy actually know the difference though? Like half the people here don't believe in the premise of money and capitalism to begin with. How are they expected to understand the finer points of business?

Oh no, the premise of money and capitalism, my only weakness.

[-] stoly@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

lol they are converting to a for profit company and should be able to make a profit.

[-] froztbyte@awful.systems 10 points 4 months ago

I dunno how to tell you this but the Setting Money On Fire company isn’t losing money on account of it being a weirdo NPO structure…
