> even if they do “care” about the customer

You’re not debating me, you’re contradicting @latexr.

> infinitesimal

You invented a narrow niche to knock down there, but as I said, I actually looked it up and the majority of startup companies that form are seed or self funded, not VC funded. I was responding to @latexr’s claims that “most” founders don’t care about product at all, which I believe is just false. You’re arguing with me about something else, and I don’t know what your point is yet. Mine is that caring about customers and caring about money aren’t exclusive things, a successful business must do both.

Where did you find this tidbit of information that most tech startups don’t take outside funding?

Every company “cares about their customers” to the point where that’s how they make their money.
