Well, they say they’ll maintain full independence and operate as normal, so hopefully that’s the case (especially since I just bought another Syntakt).

That's what they ALWAYS say.. every single time.

RIP Elektron. Let the enshittification begin.

Someone posted a link to the Bonier Capital page and went on about how they’re interested in long term relationships with companies that are already profitable, with interest in expanding.

I don’t like it all, but at the same time it likely means business as usual for years to come. If there’s something negative from the acquisition, we might not see it for a while.

That doesn’t make feel better, but I’m gonna use what I can for as long as I can. Hopefully they never implement a subscription/update model and I’ll keep smashing these Syntakt buttons.
