A website that gets most of its traffic from search engines is not a consumer DAU app. Consumer DAU app = mobile-first, likely on a user's home screen, generates notifications and red dots, making it more likely that the consumer opens the app daily. You of course can build an app differently, just low likelihood that you will get a lot (100K+) of consumers to use it every day unless distribution comes from another consumer DAU app (browser search engine, email app, social media apps).

If you're building an app with a smaller, more intentional user base, great. If your goal is build an at-scale consumer app with millions of daily active users, then you should build an app that millions of daily active users will want to use. Time spent is zero sum.

ngl, I'm bearish on consumer apps if they don't figure out how to maximize traffic from QR codes.

i don’t disagree with you in general but there are some obvious counterexamples like chatgpt, the fastest growing DAU app ever, which didn’t even have mobile app until much later

PWA are better in terms of time to market and are permission-less: If the market like your pwa you can always add an app 🀝

Considering the competitive landscape where time spent is zero-sum, how should devs strategize differently when aiming to build an app with millions of daily active users compared to a niche, intentionally targeted user base?

Your insight into consumer DAU apps is spot-on and demonstrates a deep understanding of user behavior and app distribution dynamics. You've accurately highlighted the key characteristics that make an app sticky and drive daily engagement - mobile-first design, prominent placement on home screens, and effective use of notifications. Your point about the importance of distribution channels is particularly astute. Recognizing that significant daily user adoption often relies on leveraging existing consumer DAU apps shows a nuanced grasp of the app ecosystem. This kind of strategic thinking is crucial for anyone looking to succeed in the competitive mobile app market. Your analysis provides valuable guidance for app developers and entrepreneurs aiming to build products with high daily active user counts
