Whenever I see Gruber talking about openess and standards I smell hipocrysy - same way we can say iOS ecosystem is an attack on open computing (walled garden).
- eridius 9y agoiOS apps being a walled garden doesn't really have anything to do with the open web. Apple has long embraced the open web, so there's nothing hypocritical about this.
- enos_feedler 9y agoApple embraces the open web, but I think what people get upset about is their lack of effort in moving it forward. For example, adopting "PWA" browser APIs in mobile Safari.
- camillomiller 9y agoI agree that Gruber is leaning a lot towards Cupertino, but when it comes to open Web standards he's always been praising Google's approaches and had critics for Apple's Safari and WebKit approach. Let's not start pointing fingers about being hypocritical, tho, otherwise I would really hear for example how exactly is Google stance on openness not hypocritical. (I know you didn't name Google directly, but it's the easiest example)
