I think the moral flexibility of the diaspora and the people who encouraged it for $ would be a way more interesting article.

From the linked article linked about 'Fast':

Earlier this year, NPR reported on how CEO Holland had his share of controversy in Australia prior to starting Fast. Holland’s former startup, Tow.com.au, which aimed to be “the Uber of towing,” failed in what at least one person described as a “disaster.” NPR’s article noted that Holland’s previous venture was embroiled “in a multimillion-dollar billing dispute with the Australian state government over towing and impounding fees that led to the startup’s liquidation in 2018.”

Another commenter mentions the 'moral flexibility' of Uber. From the featured photo this appears to be another attribute of the diaspora. The business model of Arrived is frankly disgusting.

I highly recommend "Poverty, By America" if you'd like the background for my comment.

This is very small thinking. The context is to produce value for a user on a web platform. I’m well aware of the APIs and limitations for each of these.

Mirrors my experience exactly. Used polymer, angular, react and lit element. I’ve been able to rely on react for almost a decade. The others have just been mistakes
