The Battle of Mars

I'd love to be able to try... I mean what's the point of posting on PH if we can't even try it? Why would I UPVOTE something I can't even test?

@oncejean Hey Jean, yeah, I can see how that's frustrating. We contemplated what a launch might mean in our case. We're kind of this hybrid software and hardware company. We must buy and capacity plan building lots of custom servers (unlike pure software) and must do so across the world to achieve low latency. That means it's tough to scale instantly world-wide without Google-level resources. We could've done a pre-order like a hardware company might but I felt that was unnecessary. When the software is available, you can buy it then vs risking an unfulfilled promise. We're live in California/NYC and onboarding users as fast as we scale to the capacity. We'd prefer not to burn out like most hardware companies by over purchasing hardware. All this together is exacerbated by the chip shortage where lead times on servers are now 10+ weeks out.

@suhail I appreciate the elaborate answer. Maybe a quick heads up that you're only live for now in NY and CA ;) I like the idea but would love to see more than a landing page, that's all. I guess I'll have to be a bit more patient ;)

@oncejean I am pretty committed to going live and self-serve by early next year fwiw opening up region by region. Let me know where you're roughly located and I'll make myself a reminder.

@suhail I'm usually in NYC but currently in London. So I guess I'll be able to test it once I'm back. Thx :)

@oncejean @suhail I don't understand why do you need to buy hardware? why don't you just rent servers? Is it to save resources on the long term? but that would also cost you much more initially and would require more maintenance efforts!

Hey everyone, thanks for checking out Mighty. If you have any questions, please comment below. After 2 years of hard work, we've created something that's indistinguishable from a Google Chrome that runs at 4K, 60 frames a second, takes no more than 500 MB of RAM, and often less than 30% CPU even with 50+ tabs open. This is the first step in making a new kind of computer. While there is a waitlist, we are onboarding new users every single week as we ramp up server capacity across west and east coast of the United States. We do not plan to have a permanent waitlist forever. In the meantime, feel free to read my piece on our master plan to reignite the future of desktop computing: https://blog.mightyapp.com/might...
