>Can we get back to making clever and disruptive solutions please?

So wait, when MS was abusing its IE product then HN is justified in angry anti-MS rants, but when Apple purposely keeps html5 gimped on iOS and refuses any other browser on iOS suddenly you're all about tolerance and double-standards.

This a very legitimate issue. Apple can't applaud HTML5 in public and piss on it in private. Yes, its a threat to your app ecosystem. Accept it, fix the bugs, and allow other browsers. This is HN worthy, if not extraordinarily HN worthy.




I didn't write anything about MS.


You certainly weren't shy about generalizing about HN and telling us what is HN worthy!

Then dont generalize about HN because it has an anti-MS focus and once we start talking about what is HN worthy, then we have to admit that criticism of big players is the status quo not the exception.


There is a big difference between constructive criticism and vitriolic platform wars that you seem to keep trying to instigate.

Again, how is MS relevant to this discussion?
