@jamesthomson I just think this people are the kind of people who don’t want to pay for quality software.

@jamesthomson @TheiPhone_Dev But think of all the “exposure” you could get by giving it away. That’s got to be worth more than actual money

@michael8684 But quality software must be paid. Exposure comes later, from those who try your product.

@jamesthomson oh my god the replies are such a cesspool

@mr_mrak He is attacking the platform because half of his tweets are about the Quest 3. Just an angry meta fan

@jamesthomson they’ve obviously never tried your calculator

@pixel Not at $9.99 - daylight robbery!

@pixel @jamesthomson Heck, Eric, my quad-grande-vanilla-mocha runs almost that much at Starbucks. 😳

@jamesthomson @pixel Oh, James, you need to make it a $9.99/yr subscription and really drive them insane. 🤣

@jamesthomson @pixel 10 bucks is INSANELY much! It’s only a dollar less than $3499, right? I know I’m right because I found this RandomNewCalc123 on the App Store and it told me so. Didn’t cost me a single dime!111 🥹

@jamesthomson This the app that person makes so…

@ismh I'm not going to take this lying down!

@jamesthomson @ismh so PCalc is getting a horizontal two player co-op mode?

@jamesthomson What a weird thread, the VR bowling price comparison is particularly funny to me.

@jamesthomson I mean, they do have a point about lack of apps. And to an average person that doesn’t know how powerful PCalc is or that you spent over 2 decades perfecting it, bringing it to new platforms and never charging for an upgrade, I imagine it can look crazy when they’re used to everything being 0-0.99 money units 😔

@jamesthomson
Is the normal About Box experience now fully emerged?
Or is that a secret? 🤫

@axel There isn’t much of a Vision Pro version yet, just one banana 🙂

@jamesthomson You've got your work cut out for you then :-)

@jamesthomson Tech bros being shallow and ignorant!? Say it ain’t so!

@gedeonm Ah, it’s fine - I don’t care about the opinions of people still using Twitter tbh!

@jamesthomson @gedeonm As you should. And I also bought Vision PCalc :)

@jamesthomson @gedeonm and a paying Twitter user at that... yeesh

@brzz @jamesthomson @gedeonm with their own $9.99 app on VR headsets if you investigate further

@jamesthomson “It’s PCalc you philistine! Featuring it is tradition!”

@jamesthomson

Everything non-Apple is always better than everything Apple.

This is a person who at least appears to have multiple VR sets.

Who cares what they think?

@jamesthomson Another reason I've been off Twitter... Love me some VisionPro PCalc!

@jamesthomson I challenge them to name one “launch app” for those other platforms 🙃

@jamesthomson i hope you learned your lesson

@jamesthomson i love pcalc but it’s hard to disagree with the sentiment of a $10 calculator being a featured app

@ammarmalik I find it pretty easy! Anyway, if you bought it on iOS, it’s a _free app_

@jamesthomson don't take shit from anyone who pays for a blue check on Twitter

@bordplate @jamesthomson
Especially if their profile photo looks like Tucker Carlson with a wig.

@jamesthomson
I’d take any insult from someone who frequents a Nazi bar as a compliment.
