Delta’s 10-year journey to the top of the App Store

David Pierce at TheVerge has an interview of Riley Testut about Delta’s 10-year journey to the top of the App Store on the latest episode of the VergeCast.

To distribute Delta Riley went through the effort of creating an alternative App Store, AltStore. AlStore on the iPhone which is now officially supported by Apple as of iOS1 17.4 is made possible thanks to EU regulation.

Riley’s perseverance, ingeniously, courage and resolve are commendable. Alongside Shane Gill they accomplished more than I could ever do with Windmill.

I tip my hat to you both 🎩.
Well fucking done.

What is this website?

This is a personal website, at the outskirts of the web, away from social media and publishing platforms. This website surfaces social, racial, economic traits and explores human relationships. It highlights the conditions that contribute to one's personal success or downfall. It shares stories that act as a reminder that life is messy, complex, nuanced, diverse. It aims to bring the world closer together. It reaches out to those that feel lost, lonely, inadequate and outcasts. I am with you.
