发生了什么
来自Basecamp开发商 的Hey.com电子邮件服务于6月15日登陆App Store，几乎立即成为主流媒体的头条新闻。事实是，该版本发布后不久，就为该应用程序发布了一个修正补丁，但苹果专家拒绝了该补丁。
他们还威胁要从商店中删除电子邮件客户端。根据他们的说法，Hey开发人员违反了规则的第3.1.1条，并且未使用应用内购买API机制来出售订阅。在这种情况下，公司将从每笔交易中收取30％的佣金。
该应用程序的作者Jason Fried和David Heinemeier Hansson不同意这一要求。他们坚持认为，相应的条款将不适用于他们的情况，因为嘿用户在官方网站上为订阅付费，并且他们仅使用移动应用程序登录系统。Spotify和Netflix的工作方式相似。
结果是什么
诉讼进行了数周，并于6月底结束。苹果最终批准了该更新，但Hey必须添加一项新的免费服务来解决应用程序内购买的要求。用户现在可以创建一个14天的临时电子邮件帐户。
公司的代表（在WWDC之前）还表示，他们将不再延迟应用程序的安全更新，并将允许他们针对特定的违反商店规则的行为提出上诉。
尽管取得了临时胜利，但大卫·汉森对这一决定并不满意。他认为，“苹果公司”将来可以继续利用其在市场中的主导地位，自行决定对应用程序开发人员“施加压力”。
我们讨论了这种情况，以阐明Hey开发的一些要点和计划。
App Store的故事仍被广泛讨论。当苹果拒绝发布第一个更新时，您考虑采取什么“变通办法”？批准更新后，应用程序内购买情况将如何发展？在法规方面，我们可以期望该领域发生任何变化吗？
我们最终有权将应用程序放置在App Store中，而无需进行应用内购买和30％的佣金。的确，为此，我们被迫提供另一种免费服务，我对此不太满意。但是什么也做不了。尽管现在苹果的做法正在积极研究欧美监管机构。
问答：英语1. The App Store situation is still getting a lot of attention, so let's start there. What workarounds did you and your team consider when Apple first refused to publish the update? How has the IAP dispute progressed now that the update is approved? What regulatory developments should we expect in the near future?
We've finally won a definitive right to exist in the App Store without paying the 30% fee or offering IAP. We had to offer a different free service, which I do not love, but so it goes. Apple is facing intense scrutiny in both the EU and US right now.
DHH在这里指的是美国司法部和欧盟委员会于6月底开始的调查。他们的任务是确定苹果公司的政策是否是“选择性的”，是否因公司而异。欧洲监管机构已经发布了第一批规定。商店有义务提前30天通知开发者他们打算删除该应用程序的意图，并说明原因。他们还必须用简单易懂的语言重写网站规则。

: English2. Do you believe that Apple's pre-WWDC decision to overhaul the way they handle appeals is enough to level the playing field for smaller developers? Will products such as HEY finally get the chance to compete against the likes of Gmail (G Suite) and Netflix?
Absolutely not. It was a very small, almost token, step forward. But hopefully it's the start of actually doing the work to level the playing field.

: English3. Has this publicity impacted the morale of your engineering team? It's not every day that seemingly everyone is talking about your product… Could you tell me more about the engineering team? Does it in any way overlap with the team behind Basecamp? Are there people working on both products at once? Did you invite any of your former colleagues to work on HEY? How did you pick the initial members of this team and how did you approach expanding it?
It was a crushing first two weeks. Filled with anxiety and overwork. Not a happy time. I'm glad we're past it now. It's the same team that runs Basecamp. But now that HEY is a huge success we will be hiring quite a lot in the next few months. All postings appear on basecamp.com/jobs.
Basecamp认为面试中的算法和数学问题无助于招聘开发人员。DHH尤其坚信，测试申请人技能的最佳方法是查看申请人编写的代码并讨论实际和潜在的问题。
, Hey UI-, Basecamp. ? , , UI- WebView HTML? ?
, . , Hey .
: English4. It is my understanding that HEY incorporates a greater number of native UI solutions compared to, say, Basecamp. Given the added complexity, has it been a challenge to keep development teams small? According to Sam Stephenson, you even built a library that generates native UI elements based on your web views' HTML. Has this decision helped reduce the number of staff?
Yes, we will reveal all our new tech later this year. We worked hard to ensure that HEY could be built by a small team, and maintained too.
DHH在Railsconf 2020的一次采访中指出，只有两个团队，三个人为Hey开发移动应用程序。在技术方面，他们使用Turbolinks库来加速页面呈现-它处理用户提交的表单，并且不需要rails-ujs。开发人员还为UI集成了一个新库：它将Web视图转换为菜单项。将来，他们计划将其开源。

: English5. HEY's focus on plain old HTML is surprising for a contemporary product. You stuck with server-side rendering while employing a number of tailor-made solutions to benefit from modern innovations. Are you keeping things ‘simple’ to make a statement about the standard-breaking practices of mainstream email providers?
We're keeping things simpler because it works! It allows a small team to do so much more. Making a point that modern complexity is not necessary is a nice bonus, but it's not the point. The point is to build a great product with a small team in a way where we can enjoy ourselves.
David在6月中旬对Protocol的采访中说，现代电子邮件客户正在通过电视连续剧Seinfeld来重现这种情况。据说他们更了解您的需求，如果您不喜欢它，可以去其他地方。嘿开发人员努力改变这种状况，如果不克服垄断，那么至少要朝这个方向迈出一步。

: English6. Let's talk about the recent controversy surrounding the email sharing feature. You promptly disabled it and promised to be more mindful of your services' potential for abuse. What choices have you already made to ensure the security of your users' data and what further actions are you planning on taking?
We hadn't thought that public link feature through from the abuse angle. So we're putting it back on the drawing board until we can do better. When something appears on hey.com, they have to be able to trust that it's done right and with consent.
在启动时，Hey允许您生成电子邮件链接并与其他人共享。同时，它的参与者没有收到有关此的通知。开发人员暂时禁用了共享功能，以防止滥用事实。符合公司内部安全标准时将退还该产品。
另外，邮件服务的作者已经着手研究其他安全功能-对洪水的保护和“跟踪像素即”跟踪的字母开幕。此外，开发人员已经实现了Shield系统，该系统可以保护邮箱免受包含攻击性言论和滥用行为的邮件的侵害。

: English7. You often talk about the importance of having good written communication skills, particularly for developers. During the IAP crisis you proved yourself to be more than capable of standing your ground on Twitter. How did you organise the written exchange of ideas that led to the development of HEY? How did the product conceptually evolve over these two years? Are you happy with the results or should we expect big changes in the near future?
I've been writing for the web for 25 years. I keep practicing! And we're a very writing-focused organization at Basecamp. Have been since the start. So all that came naturally. I think HEY's core vision is incredibly strong, but of course we'll expand and make things better.
