Good or bad, from scooters to skyscrapers. It’s just different.
A related side topic here might include near famous Indonesian disregard for safety - or at least willingness to overlook it. One of the reasons I was told that by Indonesian workers in Malaysia, whom there are many of. They’re willing to work cheaper and do more dangerous jobs.
KL in particular has a ton of skyscraper work being done by Indonesians and I saw first hand the lack of what i would consider appropriate safety.
I still do all of the customer/technical support. To be honest, it is a bit overwhelming and starting to take away from other tasks so I likely won't do 100% of it for much longer. However, it has really helped us hone in on our customer needs & sell them on new features. I don't regret it one bit!
p.s. we are searching for a CTO to help us build out a team (large equity stake + modest salary). Email me hank (at) ordermetrics (dot) io if interested.

Building modules that can interact with any one of hundreds of other modules usually requires a fair amount of adapter code. This code comes with a performance penalty.
Maybe their market is ok with lesser performance. But I am highly skeptical that apps built this way will ever compete with apps built for a single, specific purpose.
I do hope they can advance the state of the art in some way though, because software development still feels way more tedious to me than it should be.
