Then maybe they shouldn't have publicly said they were planning to build this bridge ten years ago.
Anyone who knows how software companies work knows the pattern. One dude wants to do something and pushes hard for it and things get done. Then they leave the company / get promoted / move to a different part of the company and there is no more will to do said thing. The people in the company have forgotten about linux support 200 times already, and saying something 10 years ago won't change that. Make linux be something regular gamers want to run, get a double digit adoption rate, maybe they'll revisit it
Yes, they are unreliable. The fact that this is typical of software companies doesn't excuse the behaviour or make it a sound business strategy.
You're not actually arguing with what's being said, you're just normalising it.
What do you think this is? It's a random post, not a debate. I'm not here to argue a point. No amount of "discussion" will reach them
So you have no point and should be ignored. Thanks for confirming that.
Real life isn't a discussion with arguments for and against. The sooner you learn that this thread, and any similar to it are completely insignificant, and that your complaints and "arguments" aren't reaching anyone, the better off you'll be.
I don't understand why you're taking this so seriously. You said yourself it's insignificant.
So if that's the case why not let it go? Is getting the last word important to you even though the discussion isn't?
It's a free world and I can do whatever I want to do. Including when to post a comment and when not to post one.
