Someone over on the tweeters said something that got me thinking...
Before "Google" existed, software was undeniably:
- faster
- more memory efficient
- less DRM-y
- less dependent on services
Maybe we were better at making software before we could "Google" things.
Maybe there's no causation there at all. But, I tell ya, the correlation is bonkers strong.
@lunduke in a way isn't just everyone trying to innovate and baking in as many features as possible to stay competitive? can't argue with less DRM-y and dependent on services though...
@lunduke We're on your side on that one, and oh gosh, the beauty of well written, 8 bit game software! *(You caught me playing Jill of the Jungle in a DOS box!)
@lunduke where's the supporting data?
@lunduke I agree but it was also less complex, more error prone, and did a lot less
I don't have a counterargument for the DRM stuff because I don't like DRM
