> Maybe all humans should speak 1 language
Your argument is a straw man. When we agree upon standards, wonderful things happen.
HTML, Email, TCP, DNS, and every other protocol are an example of what happens when we collaborate openly and don't have one company lording over everything.
Apple just wants to control the iPhone and the money printer it has built. It has distorted computing for over a decade.
Mobile computing belongs to two companies, not to us.
- rafram 2y agoDesktop OSes are still open platforms and yet we have GTK, Qt, Cocoa, and whatever Windows does these days. You can run a Qt app on macOS, but macOS users are used to Cocoa and prefer the experience of using a native-feeling app. Wouldn’t be any different if you could run Android-native apps on iOS or vice versa.
