Hopefully this will cause the software and game development industry to optimize their programs as intensly as they did 30 years ago. I assume that upper management types have largely forgotten the value of having a quality product, and that subsequently the time allowed for QA and optimization has shrunk in order to ship the product quicker. The ease of patching has made it worse. Hoping to see some more competent coding in the future.
Hmmh. I mean all the software I install from my Linux distribution’s repository use the same shared libraries. We just get some bloat with the more modern stuff that allows multiple versions of libraries. And I’ll regularly get some fat, deprecated GNOME 48 and things like that because some project isn’t up to date with their build…
