Confused to see CEO of a big company just says the truth in simple terms.

Did you pass that through legal? :)

Thanks, yours, another loyal not-customer-support-harassing 5$/m DO customer.

Haha, thanks but I'm just a cofounder not the CEO, and no it didn't pass through legal =]

I was actually going to comment on how much I like your communication style, so I'm glad to see it getting praise from other HNers.

Besides the lack of BS, I think I can learn a lot from your sentence and paragraph structure. Well-thought-out but to-the-point sentences. Short paragraphs. Direct communication on a difficult subject that shows empathy but doesn't try to sugarcoat.

Thanks, I bookmarked this page just as a reminder of effective communication.

Genuinely loved your way of communicating facts. Simple, to the point, the way it should be. #LoveTheSimplicity
