> No one in GDC hallways speak of lock-in as activists believe they do.

There were many talks on GDC about Vulkan which discussed lock-in issues that it can solve.

Done by AMD, Imagination, Valve and Google, sponsored by Khronos, out of kindness and without any hidden agenda to push Vulkan....

You claimed no one talks about it on GDC. So which one is it? No one, or some do? Just admit your statement was false.

And surely you don't expect MS and its cahoots to talk about lock-in. They are pushing it to mess up everyone else, so they aren't going to bring this crooked practice into the spotlight.

Keep advocating against Microsoft, Apple, Sony and Nintendo on HN, maybe one day they will listen to you.

Keep saying lock-in is good for the industry, and good luck finding anyone not taking you as a shill.

I rather follow the technologies that buyers are willing to pay for.

You mean their corporate overlords?

Anyway, here are people whose opinion is interesting, regardless of GDC:
