15 years of app development. Now I’m done providing apps to a company that has lost its values and hands out golden trophies to trump. Bye bye. Farewell.

Maybe I don’t want support a company that hands out golden trophies and pays for the demolition of national buildings in order to build a ball room.
The rush to reach iOS26 launch date and adopting Liquid Glass lead to some oversights in my apps data architecture. I‘m fixing that at the moment. The next update might have no new features. Let’s think of it as „Snow Up Next“.
Ok, why is now every podcast double? I might have a problem. 😬
(I started using it on two devices, I believe the uniqueID for each podcast has an issue - I’ll have to redo that part - guess I will just use the feed url as unique identifier)
Big shoutouts to @Robinkanatzar who did an accessibility assessment on my Podcasting app „Up Next“. I‘ll take that detailed report and implement the suggested improvements in the next releases. Absolut amazing work. 👍🏻
Open now: my EAN/UPC data base of video games. You can enter a EAN/UPC and if I have it in my database, I give you the video game name, region and System. Try it out: https://extremelysuccessfulapps.com/videogame-ean-database/

My app „Up Next“ downloads podcast feeds, creates for each episode an enter to the SwiftData (synced with CloudKit). I also store Chapters, transcripts (if available) and bookmarks. Most of it is pure text/strings (chapters might have image data). How the hell can this take up 3GB in my iCloud?
(Audio files are stored separately in the app‘s cache folder)

After my recent fuck up where my wordpress installation got infected with malware through a vulnerabilityin a plug in, I’ve reinstalled everything and also started to create some pages for my apps and swift packages.
