Thank You Google for Breaking All My Apps and Extensions ⇥

Google+ developer Mohamed Mansour on today’s major update:

Why didn’t you reach out to the developers and tell them major change is coming? Didn’t we support this platform enough to know things will break? Now hundreds of thousands of machines who are visiting Google+ have a broken experience, many errors will be shown, many popups will be alerted, our thousands of hours of hard work down the drain.

Facebook never did stuff like this, never forced us to change layouts like this. They have given the users a transition period to use the new layout.

I can’t say it any better than Wade Kwon in the comments:

It’s bad when you have to cite Facebook as friendlier to developers, users and businesses.
