Welcome to the first issue of the ritter.digital newsletter. In the future, there will be a short weekly / bi-weekly summary of the most interesting news from over 25 newsletters from the fields of app development, web development and artificial intelligence (AI).
Mobile App Development
#1 State of Subscription Apps 2024
A little older but also a big topic of discussion in the app world last week. Why? The main reason is that the majority of apps generate virtually no revenue (less than 50 US dollars per month) and a few apps generate extremely high revenue.
#2 Apple's plan aims to shield small developers
Apple has announced new information on how the Core Technology Fee complies with the Digital Markets Act. In particular, the company acknowledged fears that the CTF could ultimately bankrupt small developers if a free app goes viral with 10 million downloads.
#3 The same app in Jetpack Compose, SwiftUI, and Flutter
First part on how a developer with a web development and Flutter background is now implementing his app in Kotlin and Jetpack Compose. Interesting insights from the perspective of a web and Flutter developer.

#6 ServerlessHorros is an entertaining read about massive server bills
ServerlessHorrors is a collection of stories about people who rack up massive server bills. Stories like "Netlify just sent me a bill for $104,500.123 because of a DDOS attack" or "What happened?! Someone spammed EchoFox and ran up my Vercel bill to $23k and caused 56k+ accounts and attempts..." are not uncommon.
Artificial intelligence
#7 OpenAI presents AI model for voice cloning
An approx. 15-second recording of a voice should be enough to clone it: "Voice Engine uses text input and a mere 15-second audio sample to generate natural-sounding speech that closely resembles the original speaker". OpenAI does not want to publish the software for the time being due to concerns about vote manipulation.
#8 Amazon invests 2.75 billion US dollars in the AI company Anthropic
