Mac apps are dead

After watching WWDC 2020 keynote, I’m really sad.

I always had a passion for “Mac applications”. Perfect integration with the system, beautiful design, great ease of use…

My favorite example has always been Things. It’s a joy to use. This idea is dead after today.

Because us, macOS developers, we’ll have to compete with the shit that is iOS apps running on Mac. We’ve seen Catalyst. Not even Apple can ship a nice Catalyst app.

And it’ll be so easy to run your iOS app on the Mac that no one will bother crafting beautiful, native macOS experience.

So… Crappy day for macOS developers.
