  I like this notion of not chasing after huge growth, cutting costs, and still being profitable. This path leads to variety, which is crucial to a healthy internet ecosystem.

  Love Gumroad. Was scared that this would be a "pivot" post to "something new".

  Instead it's a celebration of what made them great. A promise to keep their workforce happy. An idea of going agaisnt "growth at all costs".

  Fantastic!
