What did you want to create with it, that you couldn't?
My parents went from "scared of computers" to "ipad" pros, because it's really hard to break or get hacked, it doesn't get viruses they know how to force quit an app.
I'm scared of iPad getting files now, because it's going to be a mess for me.
- barrkel 7y agoFor me, files are the centre of the world, while apps come and go, companies come and go. Data is what lasts, and why it's so important to control it. I'd want to use command line tools - or UI's that are just as composable - to manipulate my files. The iPad perspective just seems completely crippled from the POV. Like a toy. Just to take an example - look at the Moon article also on the front page right now: https://medium.com/@sulej.robert/the-moon-made-twice-at-home-a2cb73b3f1e8 https://medium.com/@sulej.robert/the-moon-made-twice-at-home...
- Spooky23 7y agoApple pretty much has acknowledged that, and has been slowly introducing a file system interface over the last several years. If you haven’t looked at an iPad in awhile, you should to refresh your POV. The obvious buildup is to when the iPad transitions to a notebook computer.
