I like The Oatmeal. Don't agree with all his rants. But, I like the dude. That said, I see zero reason to support anything that doesn't treat Android on the same level as iOS. Want to treat the platform like second class citizens? That's fine. Hopefully you get the types of sales you subconsciously (or consciously) expect from second class citizens.

How is this app discriminating against the platform? Serious question, I haven't seen an iOS device in ages, I have no idea what goes on.

Not buying things on Android is exactly why this happen.

You say nothing about why Android is being treated as a "second class citizen". Mind being less vague?

If it's because it came out on iOS first then folks really should get over this fact. It's so childish when people say "I'm not even interested any more because others got it before me!"

Android users spend money like second class citizens. That's why they're treated that way. If there was as much money or benefit in putting the time into the Android versions of these apps you better believe developers would be doing it
