> The ecosystem that has sprung to life with Apple's OSX AppStore is just impossible to achieve with Linux today. And yet Apple breaks compatibility basically every release; and the App Store itself often fails to operate at all, even for Apple's own packages! Also, if computing is suddenly all about The Open Web; then the point is moot since all three major desktop platforms have identical support for The Open Web. Then in praising the Mac App Store, Miguel goes full circle and affirms that native software is still important. I'd countenance either train of thought, but you can't multi-track drift your ideas like this. I really don't like this new hipster post-mortem style of writing which makes heaps of unfounded assertions, and mixes them in with indisputable facts. I wish Miguel would stop trying to convince people to leave the ecosystem he helped create just because he no longer prefers it to the alternatives. Why drag your old friends down with slam pieces on WIRED when you could just let things shake out?
