Congratulations! And thank you for sharing your story over the years. You are an excellent writer and thoughtful founder. I am really glad you found this graceful and economically rewarding exit.

I also own a small bootstrapped company (pure software), and I am now on year 21 (!). Someday, my business will run its course. When it does, I will probably write a blog post about the entire experience of starting and owning it, and if I do I will have been inspired by your posts.

Best wishes.

Thanks for reading and for the kind words!

And 21 years is amazing! With everything that's changed in the last two decades, it's awesome that you've continued adapting and kept competitive all these years later.
