The very first time you open the app, it does say "in loving memory of X", though I can't remember now if that name was Colin Kroll or someone else.
It was Jacob Marttinen. He was an engineer on Byte.
That's still there? I figured they'd just keep it in for the beta. I knew Jacob well, and his death last June had a huge effect on Byte. The whole company shut down for several weeks and probably significantly delayed the launch of the app (there were only 6 employees, and I think he did all the hiring, too).
That is not a fun fact :(
You are correct. I have changed fun to unfun.
I get it. Don't feel guilty! Sucks that he died so young :(
I hope you didn't mean it that way, but referring to this as a "fun fact" is exceedingly loathsome.
Yes I agree, and I didn't. Force of habit. I have changed the wording.
