@taylordotbiz Well said. It upsets me when people focus on the bad actors or campaigns that fail to deliver not for a lack of effort.
Without kickstarter I would have never had the chance to start my business back 2015, which is still humming along.
I'm appalled of the number of #kickstarter and #indiegogo backer list I've found on the black market. A fair warning to all creators with ideas of selling their backer list. We're working on a tool that backers can use to trace who sold their information.
Tonight there was a walk out to support my brilliant husband who has spent the past six years supporting other peopleโs dreams. Heโs available for hire because our dog likes that organic dog food. Reach him at @taylordotbiz!
@kickstarter As a creator who successfully funded a project through your platform and now pursuing a new startup to bring free tools to market for creators and backers to improve the ecosystem, I'm afraid of your recent actions. Please explain the firings of @taylordotbiz and @ClarissaRedwine
@kickstarter@kickstarter All of the above. It all depends on the project. Iโve fallen into each category and surprisingly the distribution of answers on your survey is probably close the distribution of my own behavior.
@fredbenenson@TheAtlantic Itโs an interesting thing youโve brought up. I have to admit, Iโve always thought of AI as a binary, less jobs/different jobs. We really have to think about the growing pains of current jobs and the micro shifts of duties and their effect on us mere humans.
@fredbenenson@TheAtlantic โIn the early days, it felt like everyone at the company was competing to see what kind of fun and interesting projects we could recruit to our platform.โ - reminds me of scenes from the show Halt and Catch Fire where theyโre cataloging new websites for their new search engine.
