<p>Thanks to artificial intelligence, we can now produce many more software applications using the same resources.<p>Even people without programming skills can build their own applications.
The result? A much larger number of apps, increased competition, and significant pressure on marketing and sales.<p>Naturally, this intensified competition leads to lower prices and faster progress.
I call this phenomenon softflation.<p>What is your opinion about this phenomenon?</p>

<p>Hello,<p>I am Adrian (from feedcheck.co) a tech entrepreneur passionate about programming.<p>I want to introduce a new Playdate game where you need to move(using the accelerometer) a ball to a target hole. The goal is to avoid traps and go to the target. Every level adds more traps and extra sensitivity.<p>You can download the game from itch: <a href="https://adibalcan.itch.io/gravity-ball" rel="nofollow">https://adibalcan.itch.io/gravity-ball</a><p>I hope you will enjoy it!</p>

I suspect that they have their scrip on multiple website and when someone completes a form on a site they associate a specific IP to an organisation. The interesting thing is that such tools shows you even small companies...</p>
