I say this as a Swift developer (and Obj-C before that), who’s built apps on Apple platforms for 20 years. I love the language and I love developing for Mac and iOS. But why would you reach for Swift for a cross platform browser? The support on Windows and Android is in its infancy, and it’s not a widely known or used language in the context of system programming. I’d never write a mobile app in any other language, but I’d never write a browser engine in this one.

Does this just mean they want to be only fans and basically paywall all the porn subreddits?

Native Portlander here, that’s definitely not us. Wuh-man and Wim-min.

It’s hurting them in America, too. I used to own a Model 3 and I liked the car a lot, but I would never buy a Tesla again now and it’s all because of this douchebag.

Does this mostly affect through traffic to Kaliningrad?

That’s not how it works man, you can’t poison just part of a tree. And it would be pretty suspicious if a healthy tree with no signs of drought or disease just dies.

Anybody got that Steve Huffman pig boy meme handy?

How about a one question test: have you ever tried to overthrow the government of the United States?

I think the ideal solution is to leave. But you don’t have to fight to get to super competitive places. There are a lot of other countries out there with easier immigration policies, including developed western countries. Instead of obvious places like the US, UK, etc - have you considered less visited but developed countries like Argentina, Uruguay, Hungary, Latvia, whatever? These are likely a lot easier to immigrate to.

I didn’t mean for gaming specifically, probably should have used a transition statement. For creative and professional use cases, macOS is still far far better than Windows. For gaming yeah that’s not your platform, Linux is.
