The Oura ring tells me last nights sleep was shit. Heartbeat way up. I’m not going to lie, having Apple threaten your existence is literally stressful business. Think of how many developers suffered sleepless nights over this. Enough.
This is what keeps me up: Why does a 1.5 trillion dollar company need to shake down small software makers? The ones that helped them build that trillion-dollar empire, by creating all the apps that gave the ecosystem such an impenetrable moat?
Apple has turned into a version of that which they set out to destroy. The iron grip carriers used to hold on mobile app development and distribution has now become theirs. And the fist is squeezing. Not because it must, but because it can. It’s deeply distressing.
Anyway. That stiff upper lip. We are going to continue with our launch. Apple may have pissed in the purée, but there’s still plenty of whiskey. Thousands of new invitations will be going out shortly
