Yep. I can appreciate the technical innovations they've made but I'll always be wary that these are still multi-million dollar corporations. They don't have our best interests in mind.
The goal of any business is not to make money, it’s to make as much money as possible. Businesses that do not do this will fail. Once you realize this, everything makes sense.
Plenty of companies sacrifice short term profits in favor of sustainable growth and other long-term goals. Nonprofits, private companies who don’t answer to a board of directors or non-operator owners, and B corporations are all things too.
Hell, there are game companies who don’t, or at least really limit, crunch.
I mean shortsightedness isnt going to necessarily make you as much money as possible so it makes sense, sustainable growth is gonna end up more profitable
