For any of the developers who were there from the start, the decrease in review times speak for themselves. New developers flock to the forums with posts such as "Stuck in review for more than one week". If only they knew what it was like years ago.
They are the spoiled generation of iOS developers. :)
I remember the days when people just down-voted inappropriate comments instead of "warning" me about what I could or could not write before I had even written it.
Well, I certainly had more useable time. Stupid addiction. Mainstream reddit manages somehow to be just interesting enough to justify reading it. Even though 95% of it is trite.
Oh, I just mean the memes, I've never been a Redditer except for the occasional use of their reading lists. It's kind of like asking "what was the internet like before 4chan? What did people say? Did the internet, in fact, exist before 4chan?"
Wait times are so variable. When I started, about 6 months into the iPhone dev being released, we were looking at 2-4 weeks wait time. For a while there it went to 1 week, very fast, then even faster. Now, it is back out to about 1 week.
