Dang, I gotta clean up my subscriptions. I tend to add people when I find one good video, then ignore them when I find they aren't to my taste

It was extremely popular. For a while after it got pulled there was a small market for phones in airplane mode that still had a working version of the app. Some of the auctions went into the high five figures.

Apropos of nothing Flappy Bird floated across my mind today. It struck me odd how little people seem to refer to it now, given how popular it got. I was reading its [Wikipedia page](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flappy_Bird); the game was pulling in $50k USD a _day_ and the dev pulled it because he thought it was too addictive. Or possibly because he didn't feel like he could defend against the claims that he'd ripped off other games and got in over his head. It's a fascinating story.
But the game itself I never got into. I tried it once on a friend's phone and quickly had no more interest in playing it. I'm curious to know from people who played it a lot at the time, was it a good game? Does it hold up? Or was it a relatively generic knock-off that got famous because catapulting random ideas into the global consciousness is just a thing the internet does sometimes?
