No, because there's this weird thing about developing apps.

If you have too few users, this means that you can't afford to eat, while too many users means that other app developers can't afford to eat.

The company where I work has about a hundred engineers, and a team who makes tools for those engineers. There are uncountably many small niches of software customers, whether they're external or not.
