So if you do arbitrary stuff which kind of makes sense to make a webapp more attractive (or not) we call this "growth hack" now? That's just ridiculous.
I see your point, and many of my later "hacks" has been improved since my first ten. But it also depends on who's definition we use. Most of my "hacks" includes coding (i.e. hacking) and are meant to increase growth. Are they considered growth hacks then? Or must something be "hacked" for it to be called growth hacking?
