The short business answer is that it's currently not a metric that influences people's decision to install or uninstall an app. If it were one, we would've seen an engineering effort to reduce bloatware and duplications as seen in the post.

It's from August 2020 with the latest update almost 6 months ago. Wondering how it got so many upvotes on HN now.

@mcao - this is fantastic! Finally a free and a really robust replacement for Headliner and such. It's so great for podcasts. Thanks!

EDIT I now realize it's been out for 2 years now and never heard of it before!

Same for the 'Sorry' word that is missing as I commented as well.

Any admission by Facebook can and will act against them in the [highly likely] class action that will be executed.

I'm sure their legal department checked every letter in this statement with a x100 magnifier.

Somehow I couldn't find one word I was looking for in this whole carefully-worded PR statement:

"Sorry".

Sounds like you should be taking this case to the Congress.

Love it! I had an idea floating in my head to do a similar thing for quite some time but never got around to.

A nice thing to add is a waveform generator: give it an audio asset, and it would create a waveform effect for the length of the audio. This can be a good alternative to commercial services such as Headliner.

It's a thread from almost 2 months ago, why now?

Everyone - I know most of you know this but beware - it's a scam and this HN account was opened 4 minutes ago.
