ARM isn't the problem. Some games have native ARM ports, and x86 games can be run by Rosetta. It's not as fast as native, but broadly comparable with the performance of the previous gen Intel chips they replaced.

A bigger problem on macOS is that they dropped support for 32-bit software a few years ago in Catalina. Not a problem with newer games, but it decimated Mac users' Steam libraries.

And the biggest problem is that Apple just doesn't give a shit about gaming. Every few years, they claim they're going to do games, but quickly forget about it. They've never put decent video cards in Macs, and never hesitate to throttle hardware if proper cooling would mean a larger enclosure, so AAA games typically arrive on macOS years late, when second-rate or integrated video cards can run them.

If they actually cared, they'd have their own Vulcan implementation. Instead, they're focused on their own proprietary Metal API.

Basically, Apple and AAA game studios have been ignoring each other for decades.

Hard disagree. Back in its early days, Google was genuinely decent. They competed by building better stuff than everyone else, and that's it.

There was no decent free email and no free maps before Google. You used to have to pay hundreds for decent mapping software.

The good old Web 2.0 days, when companies were falling over themselves to provide free APIs and see what people could do with them.

Google started going to shit when they brought out Android and everybody started trying to build walled gardens, and went full evil when that moral vacuum Pichai took over.

NGL, I'm surprised macOS was even ahead of Linux given Apple's deep-seated, cultural disinterest in gaming.

I hear he's lost a bunch of money. That's a definite positive in my book.

Yeah. It's the mechanism that defines a vaccine, not when it's administered.

It trains you own T-cells to recognise the cancer cells, so it's a vaccine.

The same thing is going on everywhere, tbh.

Right-wing populist arseholes are gaining traction because the political mainstream has just been fucking us all over for decades.

Wut? What on earth do they think slaves got out of it? Unparalleled job security?

Can someone provide some context? What new standards are they talking about?

I haven't touched the thing in three years.

I just remember that it had pace where it should have average speed. That is all.

Now go away. I'm not interested in defending myself to someone like you, who's been nothing but nasty.

That's not the Vivoactive cycling app.

Nah you’re right and this person has obviously never used a Garmin.

You mean that you didn't bother to read my comment properly before personally attacking me. Let me guess, you're from Reddit.

I only cycle, so I couldn't comment on the other apps.
