> six figures a year

So, they cost about 1 developer?

I mean, yes, it is a bit expensive. On the other hand, it also shows that it is nearly impossible to have an opensource product and be profitable at the same time, especially with dev/infra tooling like this.

Where lol. You live in a bubble.

Not in the US, for that matter.

Where is it? UK? Ireland?
There are countries where English is not the main language, and these countries do in fact have software developers.
Yes, sure. Thanks, Captain Obvious. I’m asking WHERE is the country where a single dev costs $1m per year.
Six figures a year is from 100k to 999k.

1M is seven figures.

Counting is hard.
