Yes. By making your app paid, not free. 90% of Apple Store/Google Play store users don’t want to pay for apps with their money.

No, by doing something else with his life because developing an app is not an all-encompassing behavior.

You’re childishly naive if you think it’s malice 100% of the way top to bottom.

No, I'm just not a useful idiot going to bat for people making money off of me.

I, personally, have made significantly more complicated apps than what you're defending and I don't charge money for it or harvest my user's data. I'm also not alone.

If we can do it, why can't this scumbag? Oh yeah, because he has useful idiots like you going to bat for him.

Please, tell me more about how ignorant and innocent you are. It's cute and predictable.

Buddy, are you suggesting that software developers should "do something else to earn money"?

Are you high right now?

No, I’m just not a useful idiot going to bat for people making money off of me.

Go ahead. Quote the bit where anyone in this thread is batting for anybody.

I, personally, have made significantly more complicated apps than what you’re defending

I'm becoming fairly certain that you are high. What exactly am I defending....?

If we can do it, why can’t this scumbag?

We can't have a discussion if you don't understand some simple facts of life. Such as: "people need to eat", or "eating costs money", or "not everybody has the privilege of being a software developer as a side-gig", or "not everybody wants or can be a farmer".

Please, tell me more about how ignorant and innocent you are. It’s cute and predictable.

Get sober, then read what you wrote again.

Selling an app for a buck is profitable, if a good app.

Yeah, morons like you will fight tooth and nail to avoid admitting you're being taken for a ride.

It's in your blood and I don't expect more.

Keep being stupid.
