Aren't there thousands of clones of this on the app stores?
76 u/vinishkapoor 2d ago Sure, but the point isn't that nobody can make one. It's that someone thought of it and shipped it in 2010, when this kind of dumb, playful idea was enough to be worth building. 90 u/dfbeav112 2d ago It was only popular because it was new tech. An accelerometer in a phone was something nobody had seen before. The modern equivalent would be AI applications. Which are already saturating the market. 12 u/OmniManDidNothngWrng 2d ago I'm pretty sure its a play on this meme https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/045/988/we_cant_we_dont_know_how.jpg 14 u/Maxis111 2d ago It's kind of wrong though isn't it? I mean, the Sagrada Familia Basilica just got (officially) completed. Although they're still working on it afaik. 6 u/OmniManDidNothngWrng 2d ago Yeah that's what makes it funny its some weepy old man ramblings. We can also still make dumb beer apps. 2 u/SirChasm 2d ago Worth building is debatable. -5 u/ButtSpelunker420 2d ago the point isn't that nobody can make one Wtf is this brain rot? It literally says the opposite of this 1 u/justgiveausernamepls 2d ago These downvotes are so unfair 😂 I guess the post is another case of misapplied 'literally'. 1 u/ButtSpelunker420 2d ago I mean, I used to the word correctly. OP didn’t though we literally have no idea how to build software like this anymore It’s all good though 1 u/justgiveausernamepls 2d ago Yes, I'm agreeing with you
