Making our software so useful and versatile that we can finally outcompete the asshole monopolist of a company that dominates the market right now.

they're not on top because their product is good. and therefore you can't beat them just with a good product.

@tosensei Yes, any competitor next to you, is one to many.

Yet, alone, you can either be the villain (by asking a lot of money, force stuff) or a saint (reasonable prices, listening to the user-base)

Being useful and versatile won't be enough. Potential customers will have to be *aware* that your software is available and better.

@spongegeoff true

World peace is easier.

@Grumm nope. you can't become the top dog by being a saint
