Unfortunately they will have to lose 35% of their customers before that 35% increase in price hurts them. Maybe they lose 10% at worst, they'll still be making significantly more than previously.

Google is probably happy to lose them if they're small enough to be able to migrate off Workspace in less than a month, tbh.

Casey’s a game developer and (although he would probably be reluctant to accept the label) a tech influencer. Their finance department wouldn’t take a second look at their game studio jumping ship, but their devrel team may have some interest in the discourse here, especially if he talks about it on his podcast with Primeagen.

the main diff being that the upcharge was technically optional, but you were automatically opted into it.

Been following Casey Muratori for years. He's amazing. His rants about Visual Studio are especially relatable

Yeah Casey rules and as a genuinely smart tech guy I appreciate that he almost entirely stays away from talking about politics (because he's usually wrong).
RNAi in technology
