Let me tell you an interesting story. A developer contacted me after Apple terminated his developer account for repeated IP violations. The pattern was always the same: he’d receive a complaint, fix the issue and then bring it back some time later. Eventually, Apple terminated his account. Over $100K in payouts frozen. He decided to go public. Here’s what he did. He created a fake profile on X. Didn’t even reveal his real name. Didn’t disclose which app was involved or explain what had actually happened. Sure, the story got impressions. But the result? Zero. On the second day, X suspended his account too. He never contacted me again… If you want to raise awareness about a problem, you need to be willing to share the facts. You can’t expect people to take your side when you hide the very details they need to understand what happened.

Putting your phone in a drawer for a few hours was always a good idea. This weekend: do not touch that drawer!

Dancing with the devil aint free... A short-lived alimony of $60m +temporary unfair ranking to train AI was clearly a shitty deal, except for Evil Corp and Reddit execs. Who could have guessed? RIP
Reddit $RDDT CEO: ā€œGoogle is crawling us as hard as ever.ā€ ā€œThe reality is the AI mode does not drive traffic. Not for us and not to anybody as far as I know.ā€ ā€œIt used to be a traffic driver. Now it's not.ā€ ā€œPeople still want Reddit. It's just Google is not sending them to Reddit the way they used to.ā€ CEO Huffman says Reddit isn’t counting on Google’s traffic returning: ā€œWe don't control Google. We only control Reddit.ā€ ā€œGoogle is teaching people that if you want to come to Reddit, you need to come to Reddit.ā€

I rarely get this problem, but I whenever I get too many replies, Twitter don't show them all in notifications. It sucks because I dont ghost on purpose. No idea how big accounts deal with it. That never happened with Tweetdeck, which I miss deeply.

I've chatted with 20ish dev accounts who got terminated by Apple 100% got vague wording, no clear reason, never granted appeal, when they could even have a convo 0% had no reason to be terminated. Im sure there might be unfair collateral, I'm yet to see one

I thought tomorrow Trump was gonna release a bomb, but maybe it's "just" a new AI model or quantum compute stepup. Binance just leaked $2b in assets hours after Polymarket did. This is going to be a great weekend to disconnect in the nature!

"We heard you. You want help pitching Performance Max to your clients" ...said nobody, ever, but within Mountain View delusional world. We are all used to it, but this gets more hilarious by the day

Hold my beer, Evil Corp beats it easily
BREAKING: Google $GOOGL is down 13%, wiping out $480 billion from its market cap in just one single day. That is more than 3.5 times the $127.6 billion Google made in revenue in the entire last quarter.

Yesterday, I posted a scary chart showing CPM going nuts on Meta... The other face of the coin: CAC & ROAS have significantly improved in parallel: advertisers AND Meta both winning here at the same time. Suprised at the magnitude...
