How to get your first 100k active users

And you're the reason I don't use very many phone apps.

Developer apathy becomes user apathy. If you make great apps, your customers will be enthusiastic about using them. If you make mediocre apps, you will attract mediocre users, or no users at all.

You are most likely using some hybrid apps and you don't even know it. When done right, you pretty much can't tell.

Which can be said of native apps as well

For a very long time, and it may still be true, both Uber and Instagram were hybrids. While you may not use them a lot of other people certainly aren't apathetic about those app. Facebook was a hybrid app for years although it's a native app now.

Mediocre apps are annoying, I agree, but that rarely has anything to do with the underlying technology.
