This “looks amazing”?

Ok buddy

[I Hate Apple @iHateApplee]

Samsung's new folding concept looks amazing.
Apple could never 🤣🤣

I followed a well known guy in the founder space a week ago

Hoping I’d get some value from him

And since then I’ve seen not a single regular post but 4 ads for every minute of scrolling the timeline

I respect the hustle but good lord bro
Are you anything outside of the job?

[DaQuan @dqships]

@jackfriks Would be kind of funny if it became a new reason couples break up since both would have to go back to the old version

Or it’s something to bring them closer since they have to agree lol

[DaQuan @dqships]

@noahkagan I do you one better

@VocaHQ is free OSS, intelligent, and well supported

[DaQuan @dqships]

@levelsio @spacexai I just want to know how you guys are blocking certain regions and countries

😬

I assume it’s paid only?

[DaQuan @dqships]

@PingRoomIO yea got him signed up and using it now

[DaQuan @dqships]

So I recently decided to pull my apps from the App Store to focus on building web apps

Was trying to help a user set up there account by giving them instructions based on the web only to find out they are an iOS user lol

Hope they switch to the web experience

🤞🏾🤞🏾

Stop disrespecting me

[Felicity Tabia @jhueri]

founders will ship dark mode, widgets, and an apple watch app before filming one tiktok

[DaQuan @dqships]

@LeeWyattCorp I understand how you feel but if that speeds ip review speed and helps them bring back the App Store boost I’d be willing to sacrifice

[DaQuan @dqships]

Why not just limit the number of apps a developer can have?

$99/yr only gets you 10 apps on the App Store and/or if you want more, charge per app or review after that?

Seems like the simplest solution to me

[Phillip Shoemaker @pbsIdentity]

When I ran App Review, we talked about charging developers for reviews.

We discussed a few versions: a cap on reviews per app, a VIP fast pass to the front of the queue, and paid expedite. None of it shipped. It would have looked like a money grab, and nobody wanted Apple’s name on that headline.

That was years ago. Since then, three things have changed.

New apps are up 84%. Commission rates are falling in the US, the EU, and China. And Apple has a new CEO who needs to make his mark.

This year Apple has already started terminating developers for submitting too often, and making new developers prove themselves before anyone looks at their app. I think the next step is a price list for review, and I think I know what’s on it.

Steve’s rule was that a human sees every app. I gave the first ground on that rule myself, and I wrote about how in the piece.

Objectively…

This is fucking hilarious

This alarm app is going insanely viral on tiktok with these videos:

[DaQuan @dqships]

@pbsIdentity I think the whole problem is the people trying to get rich quick by spamming the developer account with shit apps. I seriously doubt many spammer will be signing up for multiple accounts

[DaQuan @dqships]

@ForwardEditor Based on these comments I’m seeing, it seems video editors are much like musicians

Pushing back on AI tools, though they are inevitable

I respect the love of your artform but good luck stopping the next gen of people who accept things for the way they are

[DaQuan @dqships]

Respectfully… no one cares

[DaQuan @dqships]

@surendra_pandar @LeSussyCat Ask you agent, it will find it or sign up for gitguardian for free

[DaQuan @dqships]

@Jakubantalik Somebody is gonna do something insanely cool with this regarding mag-safe chargers

[DaQuan @dqships]

I can't believe how much better Claude is than Codex

I've seriously been missing out

Pure comedy
