Ask HN: Will iOS developers loss value if Swift goes open source?

1 points by sanosuke 10y ago ↗ HN

Because at this point I don't to know if getting a Mac Book Pro (It is really expensive for my pocket) represents a good investment, If I'll be able to do the same in Linux.

What do you think?

Swift going open source allows usage outside of iOS/OSX (ex. server side linux).

iOS developers will still need Macbooks.
