The HyperCard guy? Wow, this is news to me. It was a lot easier to keep things covered up back then.Well, he's more like the John Lasseter of the tech industry. But there are worse. I remember hearing disturbing stories about Bill Atkinson back in the day.
Same. And they just released a Mac app!
I use Spark on my iPhone which is okay and Canary on desktop which is a bit buggy but better than the stock app.Bummer. I loved the Newton app. Nothing else has snooze to desktop. What does everyone else use?
Mail.app, unfortunately. Everything else keep getting bought up by other companies and then shut down, or ends up having a privacy policy that freaks me out too much.Bummer. I loved the Newton app. Nothing else has snooze to desktop. What does everyone else use?
You don't use Spark on your Mac as well. I find it very close to the iOS version.I use Spark on my iPhone which is okay and Canary on desktop which is a bit buggy but better than the stock app.
Isn't Andy Rubin the no-talent hack that came up with Android by copying BlackBerry, and when the iPhone came out they scrapped the whole idea to make a bad copy of iOS? I remember there was some article describing the events around the original iPhone launch and why Steve Jobs was so livid at this guy
It's a nice looking phone (I'm a big fan of chamfered edges) and less competition is never a good thing so this sucks.
Well, that's myopic.Point being Essentials was never a competitor to anyone so nothing changes because of the their demise.
The article forgot to mention that Andy Rubin is Harvey Weinstein of tech industry.
Yup...great looking phone...too bad it ran Android and had camera issues.The Essential design is beautiful and slick. That's what the SE 2 needs to be like. Love those straight edges.
It's a beautiful phone, for sure, and I believe it received updates almost as fast as the Pixel phones.The Essential design is beautiful and slick. That's what the SE 2 needs to be like. Love those straight edges.
Mobile market is way too saturated. Should've pursued a different market.
But what you’re describing IS competition working. That force you speak of is called the free market. Those other mobile OSes died off because they got out-competed. And now the two that the market chose are what remains.I miss that. Competition is good. But some force deemed it bad so if it ain't Apple or Google-based, it's out.

I doubt the market spoke in regards to WebOS and Windows Phone. Google basically told MS to go screw themselves and forced them to remove YouTube, Maps and so on that were useful and it killed anyone's interest in the platform. No Google Maps or Youtube? You're out!But what you’re describing IS competition working. That force you speak of is called the free market. Those other mobile OSes died off because they got out-competed.

I'm convinced people like you get an endorphin rush from virtue signaling when you unnecessarily politicize things like this and try to characterize people as irredeemable monsters.
The company was far larger than one man that made some bad decisions in his professional life.
