This was the main issue I had from last year’s Shipaton winner where the person that won the growth category had a marketing partner with thousands of followers. Let’s be real. All the judges use X and of course they will see posts for that app so it will be more likely favored.
As @SantoshYadavDev said, “Don’t burn bridges,” but I think we should all learn to agree to disagree.
If criticising the results of a competition can affect my career, or if people are going to assume I’m just hating on the winners (which isn’t true), then we have a bigger problem. Disagreement should be normal and healthy.
A lot of people have things they want to say but hold back because they’re afraid it might affect their careers. I don’t agree with that. People should feel free to express their opinions, even if others don’t like them. Say what you genuinely feel, respectfully and honestly. We shouldn’t have to agree with everyone just to protect our careers or maintain our image.
If RevenueCat’s Shipaton was all about how many followers a person has, then what’s the point of making it a competition?
This tweet was more about the “Clucky” alarm app, as I believe many other apps are better than it. That said, RevenueCat has every right to choose whichever apps they want. However, I still think it’s unfair to other developers who have built better apps
BTW, I won’t be participating in any future @RevenueCat competitions. I don’t see the point of building apps and hyping things up when it all seems like a marketing gimmick
I rewatch Breaking Bad every few months. That’s how much I love this show, and now it’s going to be difficult for me to watch it again
Journalists are turning into Dev Advocates,
Here’s my prediction: Companies will start laying off actual developers and hiring famous faces instead. This is what management has always wanted. They’ve always hated having to pay actual developers
