Developer Calls Amazon Appstore a 'Disaster'

Posted by Soulskill on from the words-of-protest dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The developer of the current #2 Top App on Android Market has written a very interesting article giving six reasons why they decided to pull their game from Amazon Appstore. From the article: 'If you are a small indie development team, or possibly even alone, don't bother with Amazon Appstore. Create a great app, publish it on Android Market, and provide great customer support. You will never succeed on Amazon Appstore without a big wallet, or at least an established reputation so that Amazon puts value behind their promises.'"

    So Slashdot motto is now "News for pandrijeczko, stuff that matters"?

    There are plenty of mobile developers here, they are interested.

    As long as no children/kittens are strangled in the product's production, what do I care how much the developer got paid for it?

    How do you feel about puppies?

    This "slashdot" of which you talk, can't be very secure, can it ?

    I actually heard they have "Anonymous Cowards" in this system, no doubt agents for this "Anonymous" hacker group.
