欧博allbetBubble Summer Mobile App Challenge
Im on the same page as @stuart9 and im guessing quite a few others are too. Other then new MVP builders, the competition is clearly positioned towards agencies & nomad developers that build multiple apps and have spare time to create side-project apps. But that’s not really what Bubble was built for, it was built for REAL start-ups and business that are trying to go scale and bring Bubble with them. I get that it makes it less competitive for new comers to native, which is very plausible explanation from Bubbles side, as they’re obviously eager to start growing and marketing this environment they’ve spent millions of $ on. BUT… from the standpoint of builders pre-dating the 17th, its a bit of a F*** you; unless your an agency and likely to work on alot of apps.
In general the people who’ve been hussling in the Beta haven’t been given any recognition accept some very kind “Thankyou’s” from the team. Letting them join this competition is more fair than excluding them. Simple to me.
As I’ve mentioned, if Bubble is concerned that it might become unfairly competitive for new builders, then there should at least be an Open category with no date restriction. I don’t really see that as a downside. New builders could actually benefit by learning from the submissions of Beta builders who’ve spent months mastering the platform and discovering all the tips and tricks. Plus, the whole point of this “competition” is presumably to push the boundaries of what Bubble Native can do and see what wild, creative ideas we can bring to life.
