Credit to Bubble for raising such a large amount after years of hard work and dedication. I admire their tenacity, community and product but I don't agree with the sentiment 'make tech cofounders obsolete'. Why do you want to make a highly skilled individual obsolete?

I feel, in many ways, this sentimentalism is what negatively affects the no-code / low-code industry. We need developers and non-developers to work together, not make the other redundant.

In the act of transparency, I am the cofounder of Budibase [1], an open source low code platform, and have felt the unease this type of sentiment brings to young developers.

At the same time, a tool like Bubble is incredibly empowering, and I want to to make it clear, I don't have any issues with the product, just the sentiment in the title of this article.
