Disclaimer: I'm taking care of finance at Mastodon

Appreciate Mastodon comes to mind here.

I disagree with the second part regarding product not being the right term. Take Mastodon as an example: Mastodon is a non-profit LLC and an FOSS software but its community as well as the LLC clearly _produce_ something users are using.

Congrats!

I would be interested in the M&A idea. I'm managing director of a B2B SaaS company, which is owned by a European private-equity fund. So I would have access to capital to finance such a transaction (without taking a cut on it!).

My email address is in my profile, or feel free to send me yours.

Hello, sound good :)

I would, yes!

It already exists and is called Mastodon.

Make sure to condense your learning in some sort of PKM system [1]. I think having many interests is a strength many people don’t have. The risk of this trait, though, is to have all your entry points to these newly-found subjects scattered and unconnected, leaving you with a sense of not understanding any of these subjects.

[1] I would personally recommend Obsidian as a tool; check out this recent discussion on the PARA methodology https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30916260

> so Merkel and Putin

You mean Scholz and Putin?

Congrats on building such a great product!

Do you support waterfall charts?

Correct but I believe EIF rarely invests in startups/projects directly. I may be wrong but I think they rather invest in VC funds which then invest the money.

That's factually incorrect. Mastodon was funded by Prototype Fund this year to develop new features. Mastodon was released in 2016 and has more than 26k GitHub stars, so is quite clearly way beyond being a prototype.
