It's incredible. I thought it was a prank. I obviously knew it wasn't, but it was so surreal that I still couldn't help but think it somehow has to be.
Got a tip for us?

No they didnt. The only somewhat developer focused portion was at the very end, where they wizzed by a callback function with concurrent processes.
This week Tim Cook said he wanted all Apple employees back on campus by September. Bloody right he does - they've done NOTHING this year. That was abysmal.
I’d happily trade all of that diversity for an update to the 16-inch MBP before we reach 700 days. This is getting ridiculous.
My wallet was ready for new hardware.
My body was ready for new hardware.
I need a stiff drink.

Yeah, as I said in a different comment, they should should probably spread out these announcements over a couple of addresses. This was a lot of stuff thrown at us all at once. It’s overwhelming.
Looks like 2014 and back were cut off for Monterey, but our iPad Air 2 lives on for another year!
Apple is so boring at this point. I half expect the next product launch to be a RFID blocking wallet
Think it was boring, and then my reliability off almost 100% Uptime Internet (Glas Fiber) let me down not once but thrice during this WWDC.
TBF Tim Cook could lead by example by doing more than 3 minutes of work for his own keynote
Did I miss the tvOS updates? Tim said they updated all platforms but I swear I saw no tvOS stuff.
Is it really live if it is pre-recorded?
Ooo ... looks like we got a ONE MORE THING ...
Developer site ... IN DARK MODE!!!

Yes. All the OS updates are in beta right now. Developers need time to update their existing apps.
Went to the eye doctor a couple weeks ago for a checkup. They pulled up a list of the meds I was on. I was not pleased. May be adding Prozac to the list.
I love how high people’s expectations are, that Apple must change history with each new OS release.
Yup, I always hold out hope that a new year will one day bring a revamped iOS and draw me back, but nope, they just add more gimmicky clutter. Apple will never improve if people just mindlessly accept whatever they give them, and why should they? Look at all the money they make? I used to think of the iphone as the Aston Martin of phones, now I feel like it’s a 1997 Chevy Cavalier. I don’t know what is wrong at Apple, all the money in the world, that fancy new spaceship building, an army of supposedly the best minds in tech, and yet this is the best they can do for their cash cow? But hey at least we’ll have a super duper computer chip this fall in the iPhone 13 to power the latest Animoji’s and the lockscreen clock that you can’t see until you tap the screen.And yet here you are....
Without a shadow of doubt, the best part of Apple's presentations are the funny snarky comments on MR. Congrats to you all!
Safe to say this was the worst WWDC in history.
Why should anyone be annoyed...people buying into the rumors of Mac hardware being announced must have been oblivious to the fact that mini-LED screens are in short supply, component shortages abound, Apple's next CPU just entered production about 5 weeks ago and numerous credible rumors have the 14" and 16" MBP out in the Fall (meaning Late Q3, after back to school)? If anything had been announced, it would have been miracluous. So many forgetting that this is a RUMORS site, not a FACTS site.
