This doesn't make any sense. Android IS linux, but only at the lowest level. Given their logic, I'm surprised they're not launching FreeBSD support, cause, you know, iOS runs darwin, which has a bsd subsystem.

That being said, re-focusing on js & css output seems like a winning combo.

They're making a snarky point about how silly Linux users are to use an operating system that doesn't have a large market share, and using that to justify dropping Linux support.

So, nothing new here.

Dropping Linux support does seem like a good business decision.

All that extra work to support an additional 0.5% to 1% of the market does not seem worth it.

It's the attitude I was taking issue with, not the decision.

Which is why I heart Dropbox.
