Why are there so many of the same kinds of apps if ideas are easy? I think "idea harvesting" is definitely something to be concerned about.

Didn't you just answer your question with the question? There are so many of the same kinds of apps because everybody came up with the same idea.

To be fair -- those "Flappy X" apps on the various app stores were not "everybody coming up with the same idea". Not that flappy bird was in any way original -- but there is a lot of copying.
