Good morning 👋 What is good weather? What is bad weather? These are difficult questions to answer, and arguably impossible to generalise. It varies per person with location a big factor. I remember getting a confused/unimpressed email from a user querying why I show a sad face when the weekend is expected to rain. He was clearly not a Londoner. But likely someone living somewhere where the occurrence of rain is considered special, or maybe someone who benefits from it somehow (I can confirm farmers use weather apps). So, on one hand, I’ve sort of given up on the idea that the app would make these generalisations. But I want to delegate this responsibility to the user. Let them inform the app what they consider to be ideal conditions and whether they’re bothered by the rain.
