It’s difficult to explain to people what you said without the experience of living in the failures of early optimization. K8s from day one, a-b testing, programmatic quality control without any paying clients on the product, scrum master and a PM and a product owner for 5 devs! Whole thing feel like a Ponzi scheme to keep overseas staff employed, perpetrated by the overseas development shop.

Unless you built something absolutely atrocious, scaling it vs getting it ‘right’ or ‘right enough’, is trivial. You couldn’t sign up to Facebook if you weren’t a college student.

Chatgpt overloads daily so what? When your app becomes necessary to enough people, bring in your k8s evangelists and shove into x cloud provider. But by god it doesn’t take 30 people to write a marketable mvp.
