Title: The question here comes from my concern of how some startups can actually survive with high technical debt with customers? Wouldn&#x27;t that lead to their failure as a product&#x2F;service sooner or later?<p>I work as a web architect contracting with startups on smaller complicated pieces of technologies. These days lots of startups I talk with have a very high technical debt in their product(s) and most of them don&#x27;t seem to care.<p>My first advice to them is that things like that can kill a product, but I&#x27;ve had some strange feedback after passing on that advice.<p>So I wonder if technical debt does actually have pitfalls along the way? (Bootstrapping yeah I agree, but not when you have 8 engineers on the team)
