Yep. And not just iOS. The way the hardware and software synchronize with each other when you include more devices is just alien. Like when you're using an iPhone with a MBP next to a Mac Mini as well, with a single keyboard/mouse being able to interface in some way or another with all of the devices.
You can pull off some very powerful workflows for this and customize very powerful workflows that benefit the user far beyond just what apps can be installed. Apple is amazing and they're just barely getting started.
- notso411 3y agoSpot on. It is a great system. Really one of the great benefits of a “walled garden” But you can do that in linux using this: > weird unmaintained git repository > some kernel level patch > weird bash script that looks like it has a rce exploit in it > weird vim configuration combination > custom build android app because banned on the app store - some hacker news user, probably.
- wait_a_minute 3y agoHaha yeah I think that journey is worth taking into creating your own ecosystem as well, if there's time for it, otherwise having a polished walled garden is good news to me. Like in The Secret Garden. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0108071/ https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0108071/
