Interesting that Ternus’ CEO tenure begins off-the-heels of Apple Vision Pro with products such as iPhone Duo and Apple HomeView, with rumors of a touch-screen MacBook follow-up.

I think you have to go pretty far back to find a lineup from Apple that troublesome.

I don’t think “Apple lost its way” but it does seem they’ve lost their focus, right?

@louie With the Apple Vision Pro, iPhone Air, iPhone Duo, Apple HomeView and touch screen MacBook Pro, I see a list of products that don't sell in huge numbers, which will receive half hearted support from software developers, and be discontinued in the future.

I don't see Swift and the overall experience of developing for the Apple ecosystem attracting new developers. MacOS feels neglected, and reporting bugs to Apple is a horrible, unrewarding experience compared to open source projects.
