> Eric giving credit to Rebble

In which one of those quotes does Eric acknowledge how much his app owes to the work done by Rebble on libpebblecommon?

libpebblecommon consists of 5362 lines of Kotlin code. libpebble3 is 25578. Core Devices has done by far the large majority of the work even here, and Eric has heaped copious praise on Rebble repeatedly and consistently. If he didn't specifically write in a blog post that he's specifically thankful for this specific bit of code, that's a really weak criticism.

I am sorry but I expect only pointy hair bosses to "measure impact" using lines of code. I expect better from our community.
