it seems that in such cases easiest approach is to contact someone at Google to forward your case to the right person. I met Goog people at my coffee shop and had cases where weird behavior happened (when i tried to leave a review for example) and i just emailed them and they said "oh @#$ that looks like a bug I've forwarded this to PM at xxx. here's interim solution.." I couldn't believe it was that easy.. in the end network is probably the best path
- splatcollision 8y agoNot everyone is lucky enough to have a network that includes google engineers. And it's laughable to suggest this as a remedy for "developer as platform customer service"...
- SonicSoul 8y agopoint well taken. i just wanted to share what worked for me, and assumed there are other ways to network with people. i don't live or ever visited SV. I do see how this is a low feasibility path
- justtopost 8y agoSo what do the other 4 billion people do who dont eat lunch in SV? Sounds like a great example of how privlidge blinds you to the endemic problems the world faces.
- kaybe 8y agoBuy plane tickets obviously. I wonder what would happen if people actually did that.
- anyzen 8y ago> I met Goog people at my coffee shop... > I couldn't believe it was that easy You're kiding, right? :) Yes, it looks like this is one of the few ways one can make the appeals work. Awful solution though.
