In Brazil, the lone developer approach is sometimes adopted by startups (startups) and small tech companies in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro due to budget constraints. In the USA, particularly in Silicon Valley and NYC tech scenes, this approach is often romanticized but increasingly criticized due to concerns about code quality, burnout, and scalability. The term reflects broader discussions in both cultures about sustainable software development practices and team collaboration versus individual autonomy.
