I get them, but I'm just not interested anymore with 3 desktop and 2 mobile platforms to think about. Sure it makes sense sometimes, but this should be fun.



Not everything needs to be cross platform.


I just want the most people to use my stuff with the least extra work and maintenance possible. It is personally important to build a future where OS and architecture are not a factor.


Most of the software doesn't make it on one platform, let alone on many.


Im releasing on 39+ platforms. https://github.com/donuts-are-good/bearclaw for example releasing using https://github.com/donuts-are-good/release.sh


Great, most of them are irrelevant, will it even get 1 user on each of them?


yes.


Is that something we should be proud about?


Why not? Not everything has to be success.
