Yeah I’m curious too! What technical sorcery is OP doing for presumably free API access

And this is actually the issue. As a developer I want to build and app based on what interests me. Then I want to write a post about it.

The comments:

• person 1: Why would you waste your time building an app for that platform, you should build an app for this platform that way less people use”
• person 2: “nah that’s a waste of time you should build an app for this even more niche platform with even less users”
• person 3: “you should just use RSS feeds and anything else is a waste of time”

Me as a developer “thanks guys I just wanted to build an app for a platform I’m passionate about”

Wrote this comment on my own lemmy client, because I like using about lemmy :)
