Interesting! I’ve been using Swup for the past three years in my core Wordpress theme, and am quite happy with it. It takes some getting used to (like with how third party scripts will take some special care, since a JS page replace doesn’t always trigger script load events), but once you know the basics, it’s a powerful and neat tool to speed up a website that has a CMS.
The one thing I’m looking forward to in v4 is more advanced hooks, so I can do “fade into eachother” animations. Right now content is replaced in the same container, but it would be real cool if we could have the from and to page exist together during the transition.
It is. I don't know what OP is on about, but load-times on the PS5 are practically non-existent for me. Played the latest Horizon game, and on loading screens I can't even read the first few words of the game-tip. It's never longer than a second, if it's not instant.
Then just say that in the first place. I don't disagree that Apple users are much more likely to pay for software than Android users, but you don't need hardware sales to make that point.
I would bet that Apple would still require developers to sign their apps, like they do on macOS.
That means you that if a vendor does something particularly egregious, stuff akin to malware, they can pull the certificate for that vendor. They don’t do that often: IIRC, they’ve only done that in macOS a handful of times.
Those are numbers for smartphone sales, not the software on them. Hardware sales can be negative, sometimes even intended. Just look at console vendors for that.
