WhatsApp has billions of users.
It’s free.
No subscription.
No ads in your chats.
And yet the servers, engineers, storage, security, bandwidth… all cost MONEY. 💀
So here’s the question:
How does WhatsApp actually make money?
And who’s paying the billions-dollar server bill? 👀
The business model is actually pretty interesting.

The way Apple OFFICIALLY promised to bring the new Film Grain photographic styles from the iPhone 18 Pro to the iPhone 16 and 17 series and then JUST SILENTLY DELETED the info is the most pathetic thing I've seen
Genuinely, I don't want to let it slide. It's not some crazy innovative shit. ITS JUST SOFTWARE which definitely doesn't require a fucking A20 Pro to handle, if I can do the same editing in Lightroom
I'm so pissed off.

Controls on the right hand side aren’t merely for right handed people. It’s simply to use the empty space beneath the camera correctly and purposefully, giving more room to the content on the larger screen area
iPhone Duo just told 10% of the population to go screw themselves. All controls on the right side. Camera on the right. Rounded edges on the right. If you are left-handed you are holding a $2,000 phone designed to ignore you.
Apple spent years bragging about accessibility and inclusion. Then they built a foldable that only works properly for right-handed people. The matte screen hides the crease but kills the colors and sharpness you paid premium money for. They didn't fix the fold problem. They just made it harder to see.
The "most inclusive tech company on Earth" forgot that lefties exist. $2,000 and you get a phone that fights your dominant hand every time you pick it up.

iPhone Duo 101. How it was named (probably).
Not the best name, but it works!

I really loved iPhone Duo's phase transitions when folding and unfolding.
Current iPhones do not fold but MacBooks can simulate it, so I built DuoPhase. 🧵
