Chris Lang does not have a support team. He has a calendar and a rule about not shipping on Fridays. We go through what that rule has saved.

We talk about the temptation to split a free plugin into five paid ones, and why a boring changelog is a retention strategy.

If you are the whole company, this episode is a permission slip to stay small on purpose.
