Monthly Community Update -- July 2025

An unstated ethos of Bubble is for them to not work on anything that can be accomplished by 3rd party means. If a plugin can do something, they simply won’t touch it. I would love to see them ditch this “bootstrapped” mindset and start prioritizing 1st party integrations and polish (similar to Apple).

Once upon a time Apple had a similar mentality, but over time they continuously integrated all the essential 3rd party apps into the core iOS experience. That’s the “next level” they have yet to jump to, which they will need to if they’re ever to become truly massive and survive the incoming wave of slopbuilders.

Instead of trying to find PMF (which they already have), they just need to scale and polish their existing product.
