Thanks Vimeo, it was fun!

Abandon ship!!

So tired of the startup culture of selling themselves to bigger companies

They’ll hollow it out, asset-strip it and laugh all the way to the bank.

…..weird

RIP Vimeo 2004-2025

Bending Spoons works like this:

They immediately stop any development
They fire all the engineers because now the app is in maintenance mode
They quadruple the subscription prices while nerfing all the free plans
They change the license of the user generated content, so they sell it to ai bros

You got data in our servers? Pay the ransom or lose it!

Their CEO is a ruthless version of Elon musk

RIP

Is 'Bending Spoons" a heroin reference?

Boooo
