Isn’t this one a bit of a chicken/egg situation?
- jhasse 6y agoIf you're only 5% of the market, you can't afford to try vendor lock-in tactics. But that's exactly what Apple is doing with Metal.
- lou1306 6y agoMaybe, but Apple's choices (described by other replies ITT) only made it worse. Deprecating OpenGL and dropping 32-bit compatibility, for instance.
- mey 6y agoAs a developer, you don't have much incentive to fix it yourself.
- joshspankit 6y agoIn fact, one could argue that you’re actually penalized for trying to fix it yourself.
