What "true colors"? I think I've been pretty consistent that I think Cursor is a commodity. You're surprisingly hostile and defensive about your preferred autocomplete plugin. You're right, I haven't used Cursor, but I've used similar tools like Copilot.
Your characterization of hosting as "a small biz website builder" is revealing. https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/GDDY/ is the one that made it and is now a $24B firm, but there were at least dozens of these companies floating around in the early 2000s.
Why are you so sure Cursor is the new GoDaddy and not the new Tripod? https://www.tripod.lycos.com/
You’ve been dismissive from the start without any real engagement with the product. I pointed out that you haven’t used Cursor, and rather than reflect on that, you’ve responded with sarcasm and condescension.
The only person being defensive here is you. My point was simple: tools like Cursor are more than just “wrappers.” Whether it becomes a massive business or not, revenue is growing, and clearly many users find enough value to justify the subscription. You don’t have to like it but writing it off without firsthand experience just weakens your argument.
At this point, you’re debating a product you haven’t tried, in a market you’re not tracking. Maybe sit this one out unless you have something constructive to say beyond “it’s just a wrapper”.
