Last week, I wrote an article called The Top 10 Android Features Apple’s iOS 10 Should Steal, and — surprise — it turned out to be somewhat controversial. Over 120 comments reflected a wide range of opinions on the future direction of Apple’s mobile operating system, with most commenters agreeing that iOS should take some inspiration from Android, but only for the specific features they personally liked. Unfortunately, in keeping with our increasingly polarized society, a few particularly caustic Apple fanboys decided to go crazy, personally attacking fellow commenters who liked the ideas, the author who dared to suggest them (“poor old me“), and the very concept of taking any ideas whatsoever from Android....

According to a GDC 2020 survey, developers are more interested in bringing their games to PC and the upcoming PlayStation 5 than any other platform. Per usual, PC development is preferred by a wide margin, but studios’ apparent inclination toward producing games for the PS5 over the Xbox Series X could have wider implications when the next console war kicks off this holiday season. Looking at things from this end of the current generation, the gap between Xbox One and PS4 sales is vaster than analysts could have reasonably predicted in 2013....
