Speaking only for myself, I feel that words are very powerful, and that it's important for us to be precise in usage. I certainly didn't mean to denigrate this project, or the talented folks behind it.
- laumars 11y agoTo be honest, I think a lot of my frustration is that I don't actually disagree with most of the points being raised, but I'd back myself into the position of playing devils advocate. I mean, I do think they way this submission was described as "native app GUI" is acceptable because it's also pretty clear that it's in the context of using OpenGL in place of HTML and thus it's just a concise / terse / lazy / whatever way of saying "renders natively on device" (summarising git repositories and titling them can be a deceptively hard job after all). But I can also understand why people would nitpick the semantics of that title; and had the context not been clearer (ie the project was a little more opaque about it's usage of OpenGL) then I likely wouldn't have defended it's usage.
