This just goes to further show the divide.

You’re trying to tell me it’s all hype when I have (depending on the day) a top 50 Productivity app in the iOS App Store for which I’ve written and read exactly one line of code (the version number).

It is comical that you think a good bar for quality is the fucking appstore.

What even is this comment. Like, oh wow, an iOS app, AI hype=real.

???

Oh no, I get money deposited into my bank account every month for something I didn’t write and barely maintain. How will I ever gain value from AI?

Yes, this is impressive. When the iPhone SDK was first released in 2008, I spent months building apps to get them into the App Store. That included learning Objective C, XCode, various frameworks, and tons of manual testing. It was a lot of work!

People have been dumping garbage on the appstore and collecting checks for a long time. If this is all the AI revolution has to offer then it's not looking good.

Uhm, the set of apps that are successful and the set of apps that are crap are not exactly disjoint...

Good for you that you're gaining value, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you're providing value to others

If only there were some kind of rating or review system.

We sure don't see crappy apps with great ratings

Anyhow, if your users are currently satisfied, they might change their mind when they find that their personal data was uploaded to an open S3 bucket, when the new version wipes all their projects or when they find that not really everything was being saved (it's random examples, I don't know if they're applicable to your app).

Well done.

It's incredible to see AI denialists still active in late 2026.
