> Do you believe that web developers are inherently less trustworthy in this regard than Android and iOS developers, or that the web is somehow inherently more asynchronous than other platforms? I'm concerned that our lack of trust for developers is driving the really motivated ones to other platforms. We can't protect the world from crappy apps, but we can try to build a platform where there is strong competition around app quality and opportunity for great apps to prosper. The Extensible Web Manifesto <http://extensiblewebmanifesto.org/> is all about empowering developers (primarily frameworks) to have more control. I agree there's risk here, I just think it's less risky than the alternative of continuing to hold power back from developers. I think you are right here. Most Android apps are slow, really. Only enterprise apps like apps by Google or Facebook are enough optimized/developed to be fast. I am now developing mobile webapp and it's faster than similar native apps. When I first saw those apps I thought they are developed via PhoneGap, but not--they are native apps. -- @nekrtemplar <https://twitter.com/nekrtemplar>
