Facebook is definitely a more compelling advertising platform... Given that, Twitter should be doubling down on engineering a better one. That is what I find surprising about these metrics, if they are accurate. Granting the most SBC to S

Action Jack is focusing on sales, per the conjoined triangles of success. This is pretty telling.

Very very well done! I have no use for this right now but I'm buying it anyway because you deserve the support. Congrats on launching!

Nothing he does is short-sighted. I believe it was even mentioned in the original announcement that they were working on a plan to enable doing this while maintaining ownership.

It's not about safety, it's about EU privacy laws and Safe Harbor. It is desirable to store the data in-country to avoid the hassle of requiring/finding a provider with an EU approved Data Protection Agreement.

There are many apps using Parse only for Push, so it's good for both... But, you've already got that solved (in a similar fashion, this is using node modules.)

Check the pull requests, as Push delivery is in-review and landing very soon. At least one developer has already pulled the diff and got it working.

I guess I was trying to be funny and make a point at the same time... Of course people would think they were related. The initial messaging could have been more positive, absolutely.

Migration is based on data size, but setting up the API server on a new VPS is quick... I'd say less than one hour from a fresh image on Digital Ocean. I'll try to publish a guide for that part.

Separately, we developed an open-source Parse-compatible API server for Node/Express. https://github.com/ParsePlatform/parse-server This, along with the database migration tools released earlier, allow developers

I've accidentally liked things before, and there is still an undo.. you just tap it again or change your reaction. Do it fast enough and you'll avoid any embarrassing broadcasts.

A lot of big companies are using it, and a lot of popular apps. Top-grossing games, Apple-featured photography apps, Social networks, Utilities... In the range of 100k active apps. It's good for much more than just rapid prototyping.

If the app uses a 'Safari View Controller' then it works just fine... That is something app developers can opt-in to, and it also provides the fastest browsing experience for users.

Now we actually recommend you run a full node environment on Heroku or another provider, and use webhooks. See https://github.com/parseplatform/parse-cloud-express and https://github.com/parseplatform&

I've been using it for my main domain for over a year... It's a great service and I'm happy with it. I wanted to move away from GMail, without losing a good spam filtering solution, and it works very well. I recommend Fastm
