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.
