Performance has increased, sure, but it's different.
Compare the best PC from 1990 with the best one from 2000. That change makes 2010-2020 look like it was standing still.
Phone evolution for maybe 5-10 years after 2007 was more like the nineties, though it's definitely starting to slow now.
And Windows 2000, from 1999, for instance, only supported ~4 year old hardware. Windows 10 has it much easier!
- hyko 6y agoYes, the rate of change for PC performance in the 90s was insane, and the effect was magnified by the fact that most horizontal applications benefitted from the extra power. The OP was claiming that there’s barely been any change in performance in the 2010s, which is just not true.
