If you have no network it’s because nobody cares about your application. Developing a widely used application will make a network of its own.
In any case all of this is known of the Apple ecosystem. If you don’t like it then go develop for Windows.
- sdflhasjd 6y agoThere's no prerequisite on having a popular Medium blog, Twitter, etc for having lots of users. Applications have a large network, but little media presence. Also, you're never going to get any network if Apple never approved your app in the place...
- blackbrokkoli 6y agoI mean you could also say "If you get thrown into jail unjustly and have nobody to advocate for you that just means that nobody cares for you at a person" and be right in the same way - that does not mean that this system is particular good and everyone should be proud of it. Polemic metaphors aside, I don't think the relationship you propose (quality app > network > you get help) is very consistent or reliable. Say I make an app for soccer moms with millions of users - do you think I would get significant Twitter support from my customer base if my app went away? Conversely, don't you think I can get the radicalized 50 customers of my pro-genocide to scream very loud on Twitter for weeks? This does not even touch on founders/devs who want to stay anonymous for whatever reasons and a lot of other edge cases. It is a shitty system.
