It's like that instagram thing. There were already so many photo blog things. Like Flickr for example.
Buy to be serious, those other AR attempts clearly didn't have something click that would find its audience and reach that critical mass. This seems to take a unique angle of making it a map-first design. But I've really never experienced the others.
- azinman2 2y agoI’ve seen many that are map first. There are N student projects alone that have done this. So maybe the execution was never good but: 1. Why do people want this 2. What’s special about this execution? Map first isn’t new. Flickr was super successful. None of these other implementations have been. Lots of other photo-oriented things have been successful in the past so it’s clear the market is there. IG also fundamentally changed the UX with the feed, mobile-first design, its filters to make things look better easily, etc. These were very meaningful changes. I don’t want to crap on others putting themselves out there. It’s hard and vulnerable, I know. But you have to at least acknowledge the space you’re going into and why this is different.
