The hope would be a vast increase in employers available rather than consolidation down to FAANG, increasing demand and driving salaries up.

> increasing demand and driving salaries up.

Despite the demand, the revenue per employee for the company might be low, and those companies might not be able to pay high salaries to employees.

do you know how easy it is to get to a million bucks a year in revenue? Do you know how easy it is to have that pass 50% margin? 75?

If you know how to build a stack, and have a useful service finding people to pay 20 bucks a month for it is not that hard.

5000 users is a fairly low target...
