sure, if that works for you then you dont need it.

its useful for the co-ops i work with. allows easy group ownership of repos and also basically gives us a group bank account and voting system all at once. like instant community group infra. It probably isnt needed for corporations or solo devs. but for smaller evolving communities it is an improvement on a github org or a google doc.

and id like to point out that we've gone from you saying "pyramid scheme" and talking about money, too "if you prefer..thats fine" in like two comments. maybe we can start toning down the moral panic on these things, and recognising there is useful stuff here, maybe not to you, but to some of us. thats why we are building it in the first place.

OK, Now I understand. And I can relate.

I only buy products from Multi Level Marketing companies. The sales people at MLMs are more friendly in comparison to just using a website like Amazon.com. Maybe that isn't useful to you, but to me it is. Therefor, MLMs are legit businesses and no one should ever criticize them.
