> And the worst part is, they might win

Might? They will win, is it not obvious at this point that every single app in the near future will be sandboxed in some way? The unix grey beards had a couple decades to prove they could write secure software and they failed.




Or to write a UIKit that works across Windows, Linux and macOS with no hassle, making cross-platform development easier. But no, we have 3 SDKs on a single platform already and it apparently is confusing.

Oh wait, they did create a true cross-platform platform: the browser.


It is so cross platform, that some think it is too much work to support various browsers so they bundle Chrome with the application.

Could be worse I guess, there are those that ship a whole OS with the application.
