But Earthly is still in business, which sort of proves my point. Something which would never make money on its own (Earthly) can make money with just some cloud-hosted value add.
They've certainly pivoted their product in various ways, as any business does - my point was not to suggest that cloud devtools get free money and don't have to worry about the natural challenges of B2B product development. My point was just that, completely nonviable businesses can at least become viable by selling the cloud.
