Given that people whine if an app costs 99 cents, and that a lot of people proudly copy commercial software without paying... Maybe it's not just developers at fault here.
There are plenty of devs who'd be happy to ship extremely high quality, small & fast code. It's just that very few people want to pay for it.
- zeroc8 6y agoOne of the problems is, that Microsoft failed to provide a decent native framework for their platform. WinRT/C++ now kind of fits the bill, but MS still doesn't seem to push it in any way. I've recently switched to the Mac and I'm learning Swift/SwiftUI/Metal right now. Apple has its act together, writing native platforms using those technologies is a dream come true.
