  • This article is pretty terrible and I’m not a fan of Apple but honestly he’s taken a pretty measured approach and the fact that their product is garbage isn’t his fault so much as the hype train being off course.

    If anything people should be thankful he didn’t waste more money, but right now the measurement isn’t how successful your business is or how good your product is but how much money you flushed down the toilet chasing the dream of “AI”. Because this is a bubble not a revolution.



  • Firefox main problem with profitability relevance. They need more people to get people to use their tools

    So I just have two questions.

    1. How does this get new users?
    2. How does this help retention?

    The only answer is it doesn’t and we don’t care because we’re going to cash out.

    I’m not running away, I’ll still open Firefox tomorrow like yesterday because the browser landscape is terrible and the shadow of what Firefox was is still good.

    But I’m looking for the disruptor because as questionable as a lot of the new smaller browsers are, there are people out there trying and it’s going to happen.









  • That was kinda my point. If qt breaks them again and arch updates and links the new QT are they going to come after them too? The position OBS took on this originally seemed like an open source disaster. It sounds like they moderated to something reasonable and that’s great.

    This whole thing has been kinda wild. Every Linux distro bundles obs linked against their own libraries. Because fedora did it in a flatpak it was suddenly a problem?

    I get developers being frustrated by buggy downstream builds flooding their queue with useless reports. They ain’t got time for it and can’t do anything about it. But this is open source software and obs had a bad take on distributing it IMHO.

    Glad fedora was able to talk it out with them.
