@waifu@mai.waifuism.life @gamingonlinux@mastodon.social GIMP is great and it allows me to do whatever image manipulation I want, thus why would I downgrade it to "good"? I'm not the crying one.

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://indieweb.social/@jeff" class="u-url mention">@<span>jeff</span></a></span> I fully agree with you! It’s def not the only reason at all. But this was the first new Apple platform since the iPhone (and arguably Mac OS X) where developers just didn’t show up. And that’s more than just the price being too high and the device being too much of a dev kit. It’s devs saying “the gold rush isn’t worth it unless we have to be there”</p>

<p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/OSU" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>OSU</span></a>’s Open Source Lab has a shortfall of funding ($250k) that if they don’t raise, means the lab will be shutdown. Federal grants are a cluster right now and big donors might come through but in the interim, if you can donate or appeal to your company to donate, plz do! <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>opensource</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/osl" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>osl</span></a> h/t <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://xoxo.zone/@Mulderc" class="u-url mention">@<span>Mulderc</span></a></span> <a href="https://osuosl.org/blog/osl-future/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">osuosl.org/blog/osl-future/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@buck" class="u-url mention">@<span>buck</span></a></span> It is so so beautiful and so so unnecessary. I don’t even say anything about it to flex, just that someone on MR said I must be poor if I couldn’t justify $4500 (taxes, apple care, 512GB storage) on a dev kit. And I’m not rich enough where $4500 is like $450, but for me it wasn’t about price but whether I’d actually use it.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://ioc.exchange/@shac" class="u-url mention">@<span>shac</span></a></span> Sure it does. Why would Netflix want to embolden an ecosystem from a partner that hates them? Same for Spotify, YouTube, and plenty of big game makers. The investment piece is real but the other part is why should Netflix make a competitor&#39;s platform better when that competitor treats them like shit. If users were there, Netflix would be too. But it’s a chicken and egg thing and AVP lost b/c of price and platform readiness.</p>
