    But that is not Javas problem, but IOS. They could use available languages, but they refuse and instead make you use their own programming language, swift. Even more vendor lock-in. Once you start using Apple shit, you join a cult of technology dictatorship.

      That’s right. Through the claim that java runs everywhere is still falsified by the fact.

      Contrary to Java, Swift is open source. Compilers also are open source and available on Windows and Linux besides macOS.

      And it’s actually pretty easy to build apps in Swift using Visual Studio Code (you know, the Electron app available on every platform?)

      Now, have fun with Android Studio and your transpiled BS Kotlin
