The people who opt into walled gardens don't want to create, they want to consume. Those who create want unfettered access.

I like both. I keep a Linux system (or 4) around for more creative stuff, but I use a Mac as my default machine.

iPads are great for specific things, as are phones, as are laptops/desktops.

Strange that the Apple walked garden creates more apps than the “free” Android world than.

Plenty of creators in the walled garden.

It's interesting how different people's circle are. I don't know a single human that wrote any app for their phone on iOS. I know several that did it for Android and other phones.

I am not talking about businesses selling apps to end users for gain, I am talking about people tinkering, making one off digital art projects, etc. The tinkerers I know want to just side load their apps and that's easier in less walled gardens.
