Good insights, and not just software developers, really. We don’t like ads, sensationalism, or anything reeking of bullshit. If we have to talk to someone to find out the price, the product may as well not exist.

    I’ve always assumed the more a brand needs to advertise, the shittier their product is. It’s a rule that holds most accurately to alcohol brands. (Bottom shelf plastic handles of liquor being the exception.)

      I learned about an expensive headset brand today. Their website was fun, their product is exactly what I want, and they have a 5-year warranty. The headsets come with spare ear pads. Never heard about them before today. I somehow trust they’re worth the price.

      (Still ended up just buying new foam pads for my current $30 headset, but I was tempted.)
