My app, FuckSlahdotAds is the fastest growing app. It has grown from 0 users to 1 in the last 3 seconds, an infinite% increase.

This is by far the lowest value, least use slashvertisement I've ever seen.

Actually you have to say 'Obligatory' instead of "Mandatory". Obligatory is mandatory here.

I've never heard of most of these

Okay, yeah I know what Uber, Lyft, Waze, and Tinder are. But I suspect they're included in the list specifically to give credence to the idea these other unknown apps are "hot".

1 user to 50 users = 5000% increase!

But I'm sure there are no financial ties between these unknown apps and the people producing this "survey"...

i can see this working well.

its all fun and games until someone makes a personalized emoji consisting of the personalized emoji maker.
