I don't really like Silicon Valley's mentality either, but no need for judgment. I totally feel you, and for us as a very small company we had the choice of either a) building a great native iOS/Mac app or b) Electron that runs everywhere but is ultimately a poor experience. We want to build a sustainable business not fueled by VC money, so our bandwidth is very limited. We decided to go the native route and work with the platforms we are experts on. There's some great Windows/Android clients though!
- mfkp 6y agoFair enough, it's great to have polished apps. But I was going to "request access" until I saw that your service won't be supporting any of the devices I use, so there's one potential customer down the drain. And I'm sure I'm not the only one. For context, my company (https://prestodoctor.com https://prestodoctor.com) has spent tens of thousands of dollars on Front licenses, so I'm not just some random nay-sayer :-)
- martinesko36 6y agoI am very sorry about that. I will make sure the website clearly states that it's only for Apple devices for now!
- swyx 6y agoI mean I also question the assumption that electron will lead to a poor experience. I'm sure you know the examples everyone cites.
