I’m a south asian guy so I’ll just say it. I’m not surprised anymore when a lot of scammy/scummy behavior turns out to be done by a south asian.
In sf too most of the scammers and scummy founders are south asian.
It’s gross and honestly as a south asian doing something legit it sucks to see them just fulfilling a stereotype.
These assholes are the same types responsible for why those societies are fucked up, being in SF most south asians I’ve met are from super wealthy families there that exploit people. Not surprising their new generation is exploiting too.
Downvote me if that upsets you but someone’s gotta call it out.
I appreciate you for saying that. It's something we're going to have to deal with, high trust societies institutions getting eroded by these types of people only interested in getting theirs.
What particularly bugs me about this, is the made up white man to paint as the slop author.
Maybe the 5-10% of true nerds will go find the l33t open source solutions, but most people will just use some paid solution.
Maybe Steam could build. Or in Windows. Or some SaaS solution for registry.
In exchange you just share your HW info
