So it's just a technology problem. As soon as bambu or someone evolves the tech sufficiently to have full color full resolution, the meta will change.

As soon as they bring back XUL I'll go back to supporting them.

There's no explanation or link to mise from that page that I can see. I now know what mise is, but that's from googling

Was interviewing for a role. Interviews lasted for 7 months total, 12 interviews, for 2 teams, and then they closed the roles and didn't hire anyone. Not really impressed by Apple.
