I don't believe that is the point of the thread.
The thread was about "Swift would be a good language, but all the attention and focus is on the Apple ecosystem and everybody using it for something else is an outlier and if you don't want to deal with apple it's a hard game"
- ChrisMarshallNY 1y agoMy response was directed at that. I said that its lack of non-Apple support isn’t a bad thing for many folks. It was designed by Apple, for Apple. They only care about non-Apple support, if it results in Apple software for Apple hardware. I suspect they will be using it for some of their new custom server farms (or Python). Mercenary as hell, but it’s not an uncommon stance; especially with hardware companies. I had to work with that attitude all the time, at my last job.
