This blog post just got me so excited. I've seen what Pine started with and now in my head I just keep thinking "keep going keep going!!" This is hopefully the kick in the pants the tech giants need, a small company slowly eating up even a tiny percentage of their sales and doing it with cheaper and completely open (and arguably better?) products.

I am mostly all-in on Apples ecosystem because I've been so continuously disappointed by the fragmentation on the Android ecosystem, and this is something that's seriously giving me a real hit of excitement!



Yes. I couldn’t agree more. No amount of complaining at Apple will make them build an open ecosystem. It’s just not in their DNA. Supporting these guys will help them to do it.

Buy their stuff, but equally important - contribute to the software ecosystem to make these devices ready for regular users to adopt.


> the fragmentation on the Android ecosystem

What does this even mean in 2021? That you can buy phones in any shapes and colors you want? Is that really a bad thing?

I mean, you could stick to Google and that would give you 1-2 models per year if that's your thing
