Originally posted by shmerl View PostApple are masters of shooting themselves in the foot, not masters of keynotes. This move will basically drive any remaining macOS users away from it. Not that Apple care, they for a long time are run by mobile eggheads who don't care about the desktop. Same people who let OpenGL rot there, dropped 32-bit support and refused to support Vulkan.

MS simply is unable to enforce every developer to adopt ARM, according to its business model.

MS did not fail to take control. It intentionally did not try to control so that it can compete with Apple.
Android took the same approach as well.

Huh? You do realize that Appleās single core performance is outstanding. Their IPC is better than many X86 chips. There are things I really do not like about Apple but you have to respect their hardware engineering teams. Hardware in this sense being the SoC.
