This is the winning comment
tones411··on Ask HN: Is anyone making money selling traditional downloadable software?
You should look into the App Store Small Business Program to see if you qualify for reduced commissions.

Impressive! Would this be considered an alternative to Capacitor JS? https://capacitorjs.com/
tones411··on Ask HN: Inherited the worst code and tech team I have ever seen. How to fix it?
Revenue is $20 million annually, there are 3 developers and budget is tight? Can we drill into this?

Have you tried any ad blocker extensions to see if they already handle that?

Wants to upload my contacts to list to their server. No thanks.
tones411··on Ask HN: Why is Reddit on mobile so obsessed with making me use their app?
Turn off the prompt. Tap the menu at the top right of Reddit, go to Settings, and uncheck Ask To Open In App.

Very informative. Thank you!

I'm pretty sure Adobe Air is free. And Electron is only popular among developers, whereas Air is a runtime for end users. Not saying you should use Air, just that I think what you are building has been built before. I do applaud you for the work, though.
tones411··on Quark – A software sketchbook for your projects
Congratulations on your release! With Adobe Air you could make executables with html/css/js (or flash). End users had to have the Adobe Air runtime installed to run the apps. Can you help understand if the concept you have here is much different than, or much the same as the Adobe Air concept?
tones411··on Ask HN: Stuck with an unpronounceable product name
RealTimeBoard recently did a name change to Miro. I did a search for "miro realtimeboard" and saw an ad that said "Miro, formerly Realtimeboard...". Also, check out their post about the name change: https://miro.com/blog/features/realtimeboard-is-now-miro/
tones411··on Saying goodbye to App Review Times
Thank you for providing App Review Times for so long. I used (and gave my own results to) this service. I wish you good luck in your next adventure.
tones411··on Ask HN: Best way to learn JavaScript in 2019?
I think a good way is to pick a framework or library and start building something that you would use for yourself. If you choose react then just start building and as you hit things you don't know how to do, refer back to the course or search the Internet for the solution. Just start building something.
tones411··on Ask HN: As managers, how do you make sure your distributed team is aligned?
I'm curious. Is there anything preventing you from using MacOS or Windows?
tones411··on Aren't AMP Caches committing copyright infringement?
I wondered the same about text in search results. My guess is that web page authors would rather let it happen than lose out on the traffic.

tones411··on Ask HN: Why can’t I block all incoming calls that aren’t in my contact list?
That just might do the trick
tones411··on Ask HN: Why can’t I block all incoming calls that aren’t in my contact list?
Yes
tones411··on Ask HN: Why can’t I block all incoming calls that aren’t in my contact list?
Yep. Even if I switch numbers they real number is still out in the wild. And even if it’s not in the wild my guess is they are just calling every combination of numbers.
tones411··on Ask HN: Why can’t I block all incoming calls that aren’t in my contact list?
Thanks. I am using iphone but didn’t realize Samsung had that option. I couldn’t find that option on my Essential Android phone either so it must be a vendor thing.
tones411··on Ask HN: Why can’t I block all incoming calls that aren’t in my contact list?
Right. If I don’t know the number I don’t answer it anyway.
tones411··on Ask HN: Why can’t I block all incoming calls that aren’t in my contact list?
Opt in. Problem solved.
tones411··on Ask HN: Why can’t I block all incoming calls that aren’t in my contact list?
I tried that. But redirecting my phone number to a different service made me concerned.
tones411··on Ask HN: Why can’t I block all incoming calls that aren’t in my contact list?
Does it disable other notifications on android though?
tones411··on Ask HN: Why can’t I block all incoming calls that aren’t in my contact list?
Yes. I don’t even want to see the number come up or hear the phone ring unless they are on my contacts list.
