Take that to heart. Please.

Which metrics are you using to figure out how many visitors see the link at the bottom of the page, understand what it means, and decide "no, I prefer the Onswipe version of this page"?

Read this thread. > 95% of HN users are telling you your app sucks.

Stop arguing with your users. You're not going to convince us with numbers that we're wrong. We've used your app. It does in fact suck.
