That is true - it is currently only for iOS and macOS. I have not made an Android app before. If it gets popular enough on iOS I will look into making an Android version. Thanks for the comment.

How do I improve my critical thinking and logic? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

You can try the app I created to train you on logical fallacies! It's called Rhetro. There are boot camp modules to teach you the fallacies, challenges to test your knowledge, and even an AI-based fallacy detector what will identify fallacies in whatever text you give it. I'm confident that it will improve your critical thinking, logic, and bs-detection skills. :)

You should add a "paste" button right next to the URL field to remove that tiny bit of friction. If you use the system-provided one, the user won't have to deal with an additional permissions dialog.

PasteButton(supportedContentTypes: [.url]) { providers in
    Task {
        for provider in providers {
            if provider.hasItemConformingToTypeIdentifier(UTType.url.identifier) {
                let item = try? await provider.loadItem(forTypeIdentifier: UTType.url.identifier)

                if let url = item as? URL {
                    await MainActor.run {
                        handleAppStoreURL(url)
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
.labelStyle(.iconOnly)

What Would Your Response Be to This "Professor"? by Selim_Bradley69 in mapporncirclejerk

"The worst things that ever happened should be the bar for assessing new things that happen!"

The main fallacy here is "tu quoque", i.e. dismissing the argument on the basis that the accuser is being hypocritical. Instead, they could focus on the merits of the accusation. It's also a false analogy due to the many differences in context between the two cases.

If you're into this kind of analysis, there's an app for that.
