Quoting: MayeulC

Quoting: dimkoI wonder, how much money Mac gamers spend and how much Linux user spend. While sheer number is high, it means not translation into money.

My guess would be that someone who is capable of paying $2000 for a laptop could also spend quite a few bucks into games.

There is also a lot people buying mac to do just work, facebook and stuff. I think majority of them don't buy it to play games in their mind, as Gaming on PC is more likely to be on Windows for the majority doxa [External Link] (i hope this sentence is correct :x )

And even if Mir doesn't die, as long as openGL and Vulkan games run under it - nothing to worry about.

Well what i meant is mostly that we could finally have an unified solution that would give all platform nearly equals chances to win ( even though GNU/Linux is the most promising objectively ). So Apple spitting in the soup is acting a bit like Canonical, or the opposite may be more relevant. Apple is just locking everything up as usual, this drives me crazy because it will affect our be-loving penguin !

Considering Osx is like 4%, GNU/Linux is lke 1%, and developers are like, we develop only for Windows and Mac because of the market share and stuff, also the recent move from ***** Apple - which i hate, but just my taught - to port and only use their Metal API so Vulkan just won't bring peace into that platform as well as everywhere else.
I seriously think the only argument is the mobile one from Vulkan advantages and performances (but harder to implement though).
I'm afraid this might not be enough and we won't see Linux overtake on Windows because of theses Apple idiots. What a shame, exactly as Canonical with their Mir instead of Wayland. Peoples work hard to bring good solutions and no some troublemakers decide we won't have some progress.
So i think devs might stick to DX12 and use Metal, thats what may going to happen and my greatest fear, am i wrong ?
