Pavel Durov once again criticized Apple.
This time, he talked about App Store moderators taking too long to check for app updates. So, a release is planned for Telegram, but it has not been seen for 2 weeks.
Translation: I love my job. What could be more interesting than improving the way hundreds of millions of people communicate? Our team members, including myself, should be the happiest people in the world.
The only disappointment we have is that we often don’t offer to redistribute new versions of Telegram due to the obscure “verification process” put on all mobile apps by technical owners.
For example, our upcoming update, which is supposed to evoke an emotional response to how people express their thoughts in an exchange of thoughts, has been stuck in Apple’s “review” for two weeks with no explanation or any side feedback from Apple.
Telegram, one of the top 10 most popular apps in the world, introduces an addiction you can only imagine with the help of smaller apps. Not only is this demoralizing, it is a direct financial loss for hundreds of thousands of mobile apps around the world.
This harm is not a 30% fee that Apple and Google charge with the application of applications, which must pay for resources for their use, for example, to verify applications. Regulators in the EU and elsewhere are slowly starting to look into these crimes. But the economic damage that Apple has already done to the tech industry will not be reversed.
