budgets are small too.
there's a few big projects with big teams, but that's pretty rare.
this reality is well understood by those who spent their career (20+ years) developing for the adult industry. we're usually the sole team member on most projects.
developers who spent their whole career in adult usually know the entire stack top to bottom and sideways. we know many different packages and built our own. there's at least a couple dozen of us here at gfy.

Very well put. We aren't working for Google. We don't have the luxury of a $45mil budget to make a paysite so we can hire a separate senior developer to handle the pressing of each individual letter on a group keyboard. We have to know everything about everything, top to fucking bottom, from how the webserver is configured to how the db is configured to how the postbacks from specific billers work because the budgets don't usually allow or require dozens of people working on a single site.
