Awesome, thanks so much for starting to listen to the dev community!
I was doing a bit of digging earlier today, and it’s pretty crazy how far this problem goes back. It’s great to see that the honest devs making some noise about it have helped get things moving, and I really appreciate you and the team at Shopify taking steps to sort it.
I’m sure a lot of us are excited to see how this affects the App Store, aside from the dishonest developers, of course, who are hopefully feeling a little nervous.
Really hoping this finally leads to a better and more trustworthy App Store for both Shopify store owners and developers.
I’m sure the honest dev community will be keen to help with anything you need as this rolls out. A few of us know the App Store inside out and track reviews, removals, patterns, and suspicious activity pretty closely, so I’m sure we’ll all be keeping a close eye on how it pans out.
Let’s get this to a place where the best apps really can win.
