No it isn't. Whenever someone complains about greed, or lack of generosity, quite literally the same can almost always be said about the complainer.

Musk would look at this and say "why aren't these people more generous and willing to pay for my API".

Rules for thee but not for me.

That API was already reasonable before he took over Twitter. It was prohibitively priced afterward. You are making arguments out of things where there is objective proof otherwise. Anyways, I think he cut aid programs and fired a bunch of people too. That's a whole nother' matter though (I'll drop the whole holistic argument).

For example the firehose/streaming API more or less require 5 grand a month, so off limits to a indie dev. Does he not even have solidarity with developers?

He’s not a developer and never really has been so why would he?

lmao what?

How so? It's zero sum between API provider and API consumer.

My point is there is no generosity here at all between parties.

Consumers want to pay less. Provider wants to charge more. It's not a charity.

Says a lot about your character that this is the way you think.

Ok. It's more revealing that the rest of you are so offended by the truth.

The truth of what? Being an utter piece of shit?

He still has a couple decades to go with his companies I would say.
