I cannot imagine any sane person coming up with this as a solution to any problem other than "it is too easy as an indie developer to make an app, solve a problem people have, and make it big in the world". Seriously whose ass did this idea get pulled from, and how can this be justified?
- gilgoomesh 3y agoMy guess is that 2 weeks and the usage pattern of 20 users gives Google enough data points to determine whether the app is just AI generated bot spam. Because I'm betting there's a lot of that at the moment. Still seems like absurdly high bar for indie devs to clear.
- Rastonbury 3y agoYeah this is just going to spawn a cottage industry on Fiverr with jobs for "20 people testing your Android app", it honestly reminds me of my county's bureaucrats needlessly adding hoops to a process (which is so they can collect bribes). Even for a small company of up to 10 people, I doubt many have 20 testing user lying around ready and waiting. Either pay/recruit or everyone get their extended families
