Is something new releasing? Why is it down?
Speaking as a developer, I can think of a few reasons why it would need to go down. But these reasons are merely technical and speak to the developer capability and design of the system. Whomever runs their store is simply not doing things right.
My non dev take is it's a marketing tactic. Store goes "down" and posts like this one go up. Drives traffic and generates buzz
Exactly it’s a marketing stunt.
