> This is a stop-gap before the web apps are rendered server side and streamed to the client. Not as HTML and JS, but as 4/8K 60FPS video, like Stadia or Xbox cloud. The reason is simple, your smartphone, tablet or laptop can already view a Netflix HDR 4K stream but still cannot render Gmail or Figma with acceptable performance. As somebody who lives in 3rd world country, I'm still baffled why somebody keep pushing for streaming everything. It feels like they are trying so hard to fix the wrong problem while oblivious to the real problems. The actual problems is bloated software. Gmail won't be slow if their JS didn't take 10+ MB. Figma would be much faster if they ditch Electron rewrite it as fully native application. Not to mention the sheer stupidity of Stadia. If I use Stadia for streaming video games at 4k 60 FPS, it will eat 23 GB of my data caps per hours. I need around 20 hours to beat single player games, so using stadia will cost me 460 GB just to play one game. Here's the kicker: my entire steam library are 405 GB. |
