Amen. My startup's too dependent on a single platform right now, and we're being burnt by it.
What platforms are for is speedy cash. The access you'll get to large numbers of people is a great help. Just keep your efforts cheap and dirty and put the money in your pocket as soon as you get it.
- pacemkr 16y agoI could not agree more. I am also dependent on a single platform and am acutely aware of the fact that this is not a good long term (6 mo +) investment of my time. However, building for a popular platform is a good way to make some quick cash without having to worry about anything but the quality of your product (ie. getting discovered, marketing, payment processing, etc.)
- stcredzero 16y agoIs a meta-platform possible? Leaving 3.3.1 aside, what about a company acting as a clearinghouse that takes care of all of the platform issues for you, submits your app, markets it, takes care of payment. Perhaps this is possible with Javascript web apps for mobile devices?
