Ben Thompson’s review of the Apple Vision Pro is excellent. There’s a lot there. I don’t think I had fully thought about how Apple’s expanding product line is (in a way) limiting each platform. The iPhone replaced the iPod, but no product since attempts to do that. Gotta buy all the things.

@manton Yep, and that's exactly what Apple wants. 😉

@manton get the feeling that like Apple Watch release they are throwing everything at kitchen sink and looking at what sticks. We all think of Apple Watch as primarily a fitness device first and then everything else later - I suspect over few years Vision Pro might just become an entertainment/gaming device first and foremost, and everything else later.

@manton Whenever I view my flagged inbox on iOS, which persistently adds 1 to the number of mails actually flagged, I’m forever reminded by how much Apple is spreading itself thin!

And talking of expanding product lines, and with another upcoming app, maybe something to think about in terms of Micro.blog, too?

@paulrobertlloyd Yes, I do think about that a lot. We pushed back the new app by about a month so I could mostly focus on server stability and smaller improvements for the last few weeks.
