Today’s Commentary
* It’s amazing how much I love most things Apple, yet am constantly frustrated by the underwhelming experiences of Siri (just awful, especially for smart home stuff) and Apple TV (the new navigation structure is a huge step backwards). Apple is nowhere near as bad as Google when it comes to creating something, letting it flounder and then killing it. But Siri and Apple TV should be a whole lot better after all this time than they are.
** I understand the need to move to a subscription model to facilitate development. But if you’re going to ask me to pay a subscription, your product/app better be really, really good. Most aren’t.
