Primarily that I opted out of tying my identity and screename here to that product.

But yep, if I didn't specify then it should be pretty clear I wasn't going to specify.

To their credit, sometimes it is still worth asking, like instead of me being seen as shilling in my first post, I could just be responding to someone and mention the product then.

Spot on analysis that I wasn't going to specify though.

totally understand you don't want to specify, but could you say what kind of product it was (ie mobile app, saas, udemy thing, crypto...etc)?

just asking as someone curious about this type of thing

You're coming across as creepy right now dude. You don't need to know, stop pestering them.
I asked a single question and said I was just curious and didn't need specification lol.

why go out of your way to spread negativity?

Because I was once a five year old who didn't know how to stop when someone told me no, and it brings back shameful memories when I see the same behavior from grown men.
again I asked one question. I was only a little bit curious because op's experience sounds a lot like what my friends and I did when the iOS app store first came out in college, so I was just wondering what platform people were having that experience on these days.

I see you are committed to being angry online so I won't stop you from following your passion, but I hope you see eventually that it is strange behavior.
