If Apple wanted to destroy Spotify they would simply drop prices by 30%, and Spotify would be unable to compete with that pricing because of the Apple tax. Why should Apple have that much leverage? They didn't even "build the plat

There's a matrix where you can find which hardware is supported in a specific model: https://github.com/AsahiLinux/docs/wiki/Feature-Support My non-educated guess is that the hardware currently in WIP (l

I really appreciate the honesty. It is not the end of the world to delay a highly anticipated feature, especially when the delay was a consequence of prioritizing the long-term stability of the codebase over the promised delivery date.

I'm not sure if the Jetbrains model backfired with the Ukraine war, considering most of the dev team was Russian and they decided to close the Russian offices. I remember that the launch of the 2022 versions had a drop in quality, I do

Well, back in the day the FF devs said "no" to background-position-x and y in CSS (when we didn't had HTTP 2 and we used CSS sprites as a way to load websites faster by decreasing the number of connections). My reaction was t

For the mobile apps the missing piece of the puzzle is Capacitor. Also, look for React Testing Library to complement Jest.

Do they? The last time I checked news about Windows they were making big efforts to make Linux apps run[1]. And considering the state of the art of Linux GPU Drivers, maybe using Windows will be the only feasible way to actually run Linux a

> You wouldn’t have an Electron app on iOS anyways. You're missing the forest for the trees. The issue is not building an app specifically with Electron, but building an app which requires a browser. The browser is expensive in term

I think it is better to compare Flutter with Apache Cordova / Ionic Capacitor, as Flutter actually has a DOM tree behind the scenes, but instead of using a Web View to render the application Flutter renders the app directly to a GPU Ac
