braydo25··on Show HN: A full application as a Chrome extension using React Native web
Hey!

Thought I'd share as the product itself isn't very interesting, but the ability to quickly spin up application-like experiences using react native web, and make it easily play well all through a chrome extension was extremely interesting to me. Primarily because of the speed it allowed me to build this extension vs the more traditional means of building chrome extensions I'd used in the past.

You can check out the source code here: https://github.com/braydo25/webwall

https://www.webwall.io - a privacy focused chrome extension I built over a weekend. Hit 1k users in a week or two but $0

Also, for anyone reading this curious how this works and what it can do.. Check out the commands.js file in the repo (https://github.com/braydo25/TwitchControlsMinecraft/blob/mas...)

This has a list of the different command types presented for voting. Each command type has a set of options that are randomly selected each time a voting round starts.

Whatever gets the most votes at the end of a voting round, that command gets injected into the server via Spigot and runs in the minecraft world causing whatever was voted to happen.

The copy on the landing page irritates my product side. Lack of clarity, super focused on features without relatable context and no direct mention of what it does for me as a user.

braydo25··on Google terminated our startup's developer account – what do we do?
I'm not sure what specifically caused it, but a representative from the Play policy team just reached out to us and has given a thorough review of our developer account and reinstated it.

We are extremely grateful to anyone in this community that may have played a hand in having a real person at the Play policy team reach out, as well as the ongoing conversation here to improve overall relations between the Play store and it's developers.

braydo25··on Google terminated our startup's developer account – what do we do?
For others interested, we just had a sit down with the developer and asked why they were previously terminated. They disclosed years ago they had created an app, and then decide to rebrand it for other use cases - basically "templated" apps in the play store. They were then terminated for violating the "spam" policy.

The cost distribution of this model and rapid scalability through decentralized ownership seems to make more sense as well.
