Apple App Store Sloppageddon

THE AI APP STORE SLOP:  it’s over
I know some insiders that work at the Apple App Store and some that work at the Android App Store and there is an issue:
An explosion of vibe coded apps, 100s of 1000s that have framed our executives.
As you know app downloads have dropped to nearly zero.
Well now the quality of these “I’ll flood every category with vibe codes apps” business models has made this impossible for the stores.
Some folks are training as a get-rich quick business to make as many apps as you can and flood the stores. It will only take 100 sending an app every few days to dilute the value of any discovery system at any App Store.
I had one person say that the company feels they can not recover from this and will get worse.
Good apps are not surfacing as the filtering systems get clogged. Veteran app developers are quitting the business and all the money, long ago dried up.
This is the end of the App and the end of an era.
Slopped out of existence.
