Apple Defends Killing OpenGL, OpenCL as Developers Threaten Revolt

  • Did not see any mention of the revolt in the article. just a description of what has already been said about what the deprecation is. Clickbait title.

  • I'm ok letting the old die, actually, but Vulkan needs to happen else Apple's native platform is going to be left holding a bag of shit & reliant almost fully on WebGPU for anyone that doesn't want to spent millions just on their apple port.

  • I’m curious if we’ll see OpenGL/OpenCL implemented on Metal in the same way MoltenVK implements Vulkan on Metal. Imagine a sort of Wine-like comparability layer providing these older APIs.
