@joe@f.duriansoftware.com Mainstream software is cheap and disposable already. That’s literally the AppStore. Custom software dev is still common and luxury (that one todo list specifically made for your workflow …).
I was wondering about the “lasts for generations”, but I guess that’s just Unix.

@helge@mastodon.social hardware advancements have been the big thing there, but i think we reached a point 10 or so years ago where computers from that era are still fast enough for almost anything you'd still want to do now. and maybe now that ram is a luxury good, developers will slow down on trying to use it up all the time
