I can't tell if it's a PR nightmare or not. A quick look at Twitter shows a ton of people claiming that they're purchasing copies just to support her. Her company is certainly getting lots more press than it has in a while.
- netnichols 16y agoGood point. I guess I more accurately meant it would be a PR nightmare for me... I just couldn't feed good about pissing off so many people, even if it did ultimately increase my sales.
- glhaynes 16y agoOh definitely. And the (to my eye) overly supportive reaction has most definitely surprised me - my impression was that we expected more from small devs, not less; but if Microsoft, Google, or Apple had made a similar move, I don't imagine it would have been met with a throng rushing to buy the new version to support the company in the face of a few people being inappropriately rude. Will be interesting to see what effect this has on Sophiestication long term.
