Ask HN: What happened to the Facebook Platform?
Facebook apps and building on facebook were all the rage when they were announced over a decade ago, but nowadays it's very rarely talked about. Are there people out there still building Facebook Apps?
- ztratar 9y agoThe app ecosystem went mobile. Facebook used to be the way to distribute apps because you could gain a userbase super fast, but it was abused by the likes of Zynga, FB cracked down, and people went to mobile (which weakened the FB signup platform experience).
