It's not the year of Linux on desktop; it's the year of Linux on a handheld.

    Instead of embracing open standards they made Metal.

    Did DirectX become an open standard when I wasn’t paying attention?

      It’s Metal instead of Vulkan. But I’ve seen somebody else make this argument before and somebody corrected them by pointing out that Metal dates back to early iPhones and predates Vulkan.

        Metal predates Vulkan.

          How? Metal came first.

            They made Metal and choose not to make it what Vulkan is. Vulkan wouldn’t have even need to be made in the first place.
