I think that was their biggest mistake. They grew too fast and took too much money before they had any clear way to make money. If it was ran as a sustainable business, maybe it would be around for the next 5 years.
Why is that? There is less money in circulation, so less chance you'll get any. Are they making wiser choices? So if you're company is a wise choice you'll get funding?
Its actually more on the creative side. SoundCloud has such a low barrier to posting and acts more as a sort of Twitter or YouTube than a playlist maker. It allows culture to form around the community of SoundCloud, not just fans that you advertise directly.
I really enjoy how most of the abstracts in these papers are more like ELI5s, or just plain understandable. I think having an understandable abstract would be valuable for many papers to have to make large complex sciences understandable for people not in the field. Would there be any downside? The only one I can think of is that conclusions could sound more convicting in a simplified summary.
I can see that by using Microsoft CodePush or similar. But you can't change the description, in app purchases or title without going through the approval process again.
This is what I was going to ask. It looks very similar and operates (to user at least) the same way. I wonder if they could support each other by making the sites accessible from either service.

Serverless apps run in reaction to an event such as a web request or a file upload. In the serverless model your app has functions that run in response to these events. The classic cloud model is you pay for a server or container that is constantly running.
Its kinda equivalent to a timeshare condo vs renting a condo. Your functions only run when they are called.
I used it for a new project I started 6 months ago. We've since transferred to AWS and a Express/Node.js project. However the Parse Server open source project is very well maintained and supported. I would recommend it for any quick prototype project you need a backend, but don't need it to do anything fancy.
I really don't like ads just like most everyone else, but I can't help but feel there is a missed opportunity here. Facebook just put classic mobile letterbox ads in a side scrolling container.
In such a unique platform such as Messenger you could get a bit more creative. One such example: Suggested pages to message. This would get companies leads and keep people on the Messenger platform. This might not be the best use, but with this product, Facebook can do better than just a re-skin of mobile banners.
