MODERATORS
MA is headed there. They are moving all of their office suite apps off x86 and into webview, which means they are platform agnostic.
I see them taking another stab at pushing ARM windows again. Maybe the Xbox mobile will be their flagship.
Maybe Steam will launch a phone in the near future?🤞
I like Steam because they are more upfront about what you get when you "buy" a game, but I don't want Steam to become a mega corpo that has tentacles in every technological industries just like Google or Microsoft.
They still are a company first and foremost, and Gaben isn't eternal. Their attitude can change as fast as getting a new CEO when Gaben steps down.
Nothing good comes out of a mega corpo getting bigger, and we have many examples of that.
But you don't think a challenge to the duopoly of Android and iPhone would be a good thing?
Yes, but not by another mega corpo that tries to get into everything.
I mean, the real problem is that Alphabet and Apple should be dismantled in littles companies by anti-trust laws. Adding another third big player will only add another corpo to the duopoly.
