This is very true. However, I wonder if we as engineers and the like can provide a better TLDR ratings guide for marketplaces. Kinda like https://tosdr.org/ https://tosdr.org/ or a BBB that works... Then we as engineers refuse to build apps for marketplaces below some kind of score.
Or does it even matter if the Apple App store is the only marketplace of its kind?

- abakker 10y agoWhy is this a meme? Is there any evidence that this is true?
- abakker 10y agoSelf reply- it appears that Sam Altman made this assertion in a recent New Yorker article as well as a blog post. I think the observation of low growth is good, but the assertion that democracy does t work without a economic growth is less persuasive. All forms of progress need not be measured by GDP. In fact, many issues indicative of social progress have difficult to measure economic impact or even potentially negative economic impact with good social benefits.
- dandare 10y agoOn a related note, as a small startup I am looking for some TOS generator that I - the single developer - could also understand and that will be clear and fair to my users. Any advice?
- brokentone 10y agoExcellent question. I know of no answer, but maybe part of the issue of terrible TOS's is lack of resources to write good ones?
