It's a bit unfair to state that you are the only option when it comes to ios apps, to then push ads on your captive customers and provide them with a lower quality of service. iPhone is a premium product, ads have always seemed to me to be a symbol of tacky seediness, a cheap alternative for the masses. It's not in line with Apples image. At least it shouldn't be.
- swiley 5y agoThe iPhone is certainly expensive, but it's a bit to abusive to its users to be called "premium." Maybe if it had a self hosting dev environment like macs do but certainly not the way it is now.
