War noch nie bei #Strava, aber seit #BendingSpoons #Komoot übernommen hat, erwarte ich da auch früher oder später Einschnitte und/oder Kostensteigerungen.

@kiki #BendingSpoons - die Heuschrecken der „netten“ Apps.

Was immer die in ihre gicht-verkrümmten Krallen bekommen wird ausgesaugt und bis zur Unnutzbarkeit verstümmelt.

#komoot erging es genau so.

Und natürlich werden Mitarbeitende „dem Arbeitsmarkt zugeführt“.

@finnmyrstad @pluralistic There is at least one company name to remember and run if they touch one of your products: bending spoons.
There may be more vulture funds trashing our beloved tools, but #BendingSpoons has a master plan and acquires services with lots of users to maximise the damage.

Why is Komoot acquisition by Bending Spoons presented to be soooo bad?

Sure, they fired a lot of people. But if they managed to do that AND finally did a modern redesign and started finally adding new features AND they do it at much faster pace than before, then my question is, what those people were doing there in the first place?

Sure, asking to subscribe all the time might be a bit annoying, but what's more?

Das neuste Opfer dieser Strategie ist die Videostreaming-Plattform Vimeo. Wenige Monate nach der Übernahme durch #BendingSpoons wurden weltweit Mitarbeiter entlassen. Wie Slashdot schreibt, handelt es sich dabei um grosse Teile des Unternehmens. Unter anderem soll das gesamte Video-Team abgebaut worden sein, auch in der IT-Entwicklungsabteilung wurden viele entlassen. Was dies für die Zukunft des Produkts an sich heisst, kann man sich leicht selber ausmalen.

What do they do with all the user data they collect from #evernote #Komoot and #vimeo ?
