An "Everything App" is just an operating system.
You nailed it, he wants to create OS X.
Sold on his very own special X boxes.
OS X already exists…it's just renamed to macOS these days
I'm pretty sure that was the joke
An explanation I've heard for why we don't have "everything apps" in the US is because we all have an app store on our phones and that's the niche the everything apps were really solving for.
How do you get the everything app in the first place if you don't have an app store?
He is really after making it an "everything app" which nobody uses. Anyone here really has twitter or Facebook installed on their phone ?
The system means that all accounts are liable to receive calls from accounts you follow, or those run by people whose number you have in your address book. To be able to call someone, they must have sent at least one direct message to your account.
You're not going to get phone calls from just any rando.
You’re right. Cause I deleted that app months ago.
“They must have sent one DM” - so any rando that has sent an unwelcome DM can follow it with a call?
To be able to call someone, they must have sent at least one direct message to your account.
Emphasis mine.
To me, it seems like it means that for me to be able to call you, you need to send me at least one DM AND be following me. So, in essence, any rando that you folllow and have previously sent a DM to can call you.
That's my interpretation. If you follow someone, and have sent them a message previously, it's a reasonable assumption you want to talk to them.
