Comment on Tailscale addressing concerns over potential enshittification of the platform
wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 4 days agoDefinitely agree with you
From my experience most companies enshitify before the IPO to juice the metrics and boost their valuations (I.e. their payout).
The fact that they aren’t doing that yet that is a positive sign.
But founders aren’t immune to suffering from billionaire brain rot and years of exposure to the constant sycophancy and wealth seems to turn nearly everyone into a greed driven money soulless vampire.

I always see it after. Because then the suits take over and it becomes a mandate to increase profits quarterly for the share holders. IPOs want to show happy users to sell the idea of future revenue from milking those users.
