> I believe it's more strange to not believe it shouldn't be focused on Apple, considering the link title includes 'Mac'? Maybe the name shouldn't include that, then? > Looks like the author believes that the tools make photo-editing much more beginner-friendly (and that is true), lowering the barrier and allowing more people to participate to the web (hence the open web). A $40 application running on a platform that thinks $1100 is appropriate entry-level pricing isn't lowering anyone's barriers to anything.

Yes, you're expressing a rawer form of my comments intent. The point was to provoke thinking about other ecosystems, and possibly have a site that may shows gaps that may need to be filled, or areas where just a bit of polish could be done. Digressing, some of the gaps may be outside of apps/open web and more to do with infrastructure/pricing (see: https://catonmat.net/incredible-events-at-browserling https://catonmat.net/incredible-events-at-browserling (india and whatsapp), and as a slight contrast whatsapp-centrism in brazil: https://youtu.be/Wu9q5fb6MO0?t=1340 https://youtu.be/Wu9q5fb6MO0?t=1340 ). Some areas of the world, pragmatically at this point in time, may not be served better through mere 'open web' evangelism. In fairness, I make the same mistakes as the original author as someone who has works within an Apple-centric ecosystem and is in similar first-world social circles.

> Maybe the name shouldn't include that, then? Why not? There are already a lot of resources for various other ecosystems. Should all PlayStation focused publications also include games for all platforms? Should Android Police talk about Symbian?
