It's funny how much the typical linux user has changed. Nowadays they just rice the desktop, hardly any setup servers. Typical old school lintard though, totally missing the broader appeal.

setting up servers is pointless when everything is under CGNAT niggerhell

thats what the site originally catered to thats why i said he is right, because his comment is genuine, sincere and true.
its just he didnt understand the shifting culture where this was going to be the way to get rewarded in the future, because its so fucked up; and that is also true, we complain about the cloud daily and governments put important stuff on it, and AWS goes down and you lose money.

We (me) have better places to discuss about the tiny things created to improve quality of life, all those small automation scripts that are forgotten [picrel]
Try to make a good UBO filters/regex filter thread and you'll be blasted quicker than the explosion schizo.

He was. Dropbox still isn't profitable, it's just that computers are cheap and VC money is well... also cheap apparently. 600 million in pre IPO vc money burned for something every computer can just do already.
There actual business model provides negative value to the world as every company now thinks they can function without an IT guy. Effectively choking that segment of the market before it's even born.

jews has nothing to do with it.
In a capitalist economy there is a little concept called the "profit incentive."
In fact... why work in the first place? To make money.
If you work for free you are literally retarded and should kill yourself.

He is correct.
Subscribing to some host who simply gives you FTP access to a folder would be the easier and more straight-forward solution, that also doesn't depend on a corporation.
And you can access it anywhere with every OS having it built in.

I don't know what he is rating about svn or cvs though. Dropbox doesn't have any such ability and it isn't needed.

His comment is also misunderstood. He pointed out that it is trivial to do this, which means that the company value is limited. Would you invest into something that you know everybody can copy?
Even if the average pleb can't, every single rando shitskin can launch such a service with ease and compete with you.
He isn't suggesting that the average normie is going to do it, he is suggesting that competition can pop up within a microsecond.

And time did indeed prove him right. Nobody is using dropbox anymore. And nobody who is using it is paying for it.
It was a venture capitalist scam.
>>
>>107120140
>If you work for free you are literally retarded and should kill yourself.
I never paid anything for dropbox and i get their shit for free. They are gifting me things for free.
And idiotic venture "capitalist" investors shove money into this, because they think that at some point in the future it might stop being for free.
But even if that point happens, i am just going to leave them.

If it is literally retarded to offer things for free, then the whole Silicon Valley is rolled by mouth breathing drooling monkeys.
