It’s been so long. He demonstrated how a good product person should do. It’s not just about maximise the profits/shareholders wealth but also what feature/characteristics makes people willing to pay for

Yeah his philosophy around what makes a great product great and attention to details spirit is something that every person can learn from

He was also a toxic piece of shit, but who cares, he was rich!

You do realise that the credits you give to Steve actually belong to the thousands of people who worked day in and out for years on said product.

I know, It was a team effort that's a well known fact. I think Steve represents all these people who he worked with and since he was the face and the driving force behind apple I feel it is appropriate to celebrate him.

Do you think it is healthy to focus praise on a single person like this ?

1939, 45, 47, 2023

So was it a team effort or was it Steve. Saying that Steve represents those people sounds like a really cheap excuse to contjnue the praise. It completely disregards the fact that it was a team effort, which you also said you believe

A tribute to an excecrable individual.

This is the whole "should the man be separated from the artist"? I think not but the other perspective holds water as well.

Props to creativity. It’s a bit sluggish on mobile Safari. Still I really like the story line and the animations. Well done

Thanks, Around sluggish on mobile ? was the device on power saving mode ? When the device is on power saving mode ?

I think it was on power save mode. I tried it again but it was fast now.

Perfect

This is really well done, bravo! I watched on my Windows laptop on the toilet.

Great. Windows after all has a lot of Apple DNA in it

WOW - This was really quite emotional, thank you for making and sharing.

Thanks you

Super cool! Would love to here a bit more about how you made it

Very nice! Thanks for sharing. Wow, 15 years... time flies...

Yeah I know time sure flies by.

This was like a documentary and a game in one. Pretty cool.

Thanks, That's exactly what I was going for. Took few iterations to get it right but I am very happy with the results.

What kind of prompting did you have to use to ensure the iterations didn’t go off guardrails?

The most of iterations were getting the small details right like the transition, the position of the text chips, the timing etc.

Really well made, and touching. Thank you!

Thanks :)
