Totally depends, but if I’m acquiring or recommending software for my large corp employer, then likely yes solo dev could be a red flag. The primary issue is probably support bandwidth.

If I’m trying things out at home, likely not. I already have lots of games and utilities that are solo dev work. A lot of us use OSS from GitHub done by solo devs.

Also depends on the software. Anything financial or security or cloud based isn’t a good idea to rely on one person. It matters how much I would rely on the software, how much risk there is, how much it would hurt to lose, and how much it cost. Games or paint programs or handy utilities, things like that I might be sad but not damaged if the solo dev software were to go away.
