A lot of people complain how apple app store removes apps that Apple doesn't like. Or how Firefox no longer allows users to provide add-ons that are not through the Firefox store. That and other walled gardens make the the new tech world much less free and much more dependent on tech giants. I personally would prefer WordPress to allow whoever wants to make an app and give the users the responsibility to choose what to add and what not
- folkhack 7y agoI agree and disagree all at the same time ha... > I personally would prefer WordPress to allow whoever wants to make an app and give the users the responsibility to choose what to add and what not I'm totally with you but that assumes that WP devs have the responsibility to make responsible decisions. The range of skill for a typical WP dev is outstanding, where on one end you have people who can't write a for loop adopting the "dev" title, and on the other end you have skilled engineers. I've seen WAY too many people call themselves "devs" when all they do is try to install plugins to piece together a website. In relation to Apple and FF - average users are not savvy at all and have been shielded from the nuts-and-bolts decisions that we make on a daily basis. Trusting them with the responsibility to make good decisions is precarious.
