There's absolutely nothing wrong with atlassian employees. High and mighty horse he's on there

Dude really sounds like a bozo again, being brutally honest is no excuse to be unkind

Yeah, self-described "brutally honest" people lean a bit much on the brutal part. You can be direct and kind.

there's absolutely something wrong with the fruits of their labor though, which I am forced to use every day

Atlassian presumably also hired a bunch of his people from Loom, so to some extent he is implying that all the Loom folks became "NPCs" during the acquisition.

I've seen several founders who kept their team together within a bigger company after a buyout, and went on to do pretty significant projects together with big company resources. It's not a given that you have to be swallowed up by the bureaucracy

As a proud ex-Atlassian employee, fuck this guy.
