The whole 5G thing is just complete bullshit. After the tech has flopped pretty much worldwide and Verizon's and AT&T's "5G REMOTE SURGERY" and "RACE TO 5G" marketing bs didn't get consumers interested

It felt more like Verizon 5G event than Apple event. I wonder how much they paid Apple for this?

This is what happens when you bow down on everything the ”I’m so offended by <insert some random bullshit here>” -people whine about. I guess I better get rid of my Master’s degree before some people think I’m a slave owner.

Not sure if they support running games at those refresh rates, but either way there won't be many if any AAA games that would actually be running +60 FPS. If we can even get stable 60 FPS for most titles with 1440p or 4K, I'll be

Yeah so maybe try making a real native app instead of trying to hackaround with web sites? Apple isn't obligated to implement every single "this is now cool on web"-thing on it's platform to satisfy small niche of people

Yep. Just because "PWA"-geek niche at HN wants to go back to shitty UX from 2004 it doesn't mean all tech companies or consumers want to. I hope Apple keeps restricting this in the future too so that iOS app ecosystem won
