What is inferior to macOS to Windows? (in addition to games, etc.)
Apple Open Source Resources
- Apple releases a Game Porting Tool, based on open-source platform Wine, which can translate DirectX 12 into Metal 3, a potentially massive step for Mac gaming

Apple’s new Proton-like tool can run Windows games on a Mac
Apple does plenty of open source stuff. Safari's browser engine, Swift, libdispatch, the XNU kernel used by iOS and macOS, etc. And macOS is generally packed with open source things, like the default shell, zsh. Also, Metal actually predates Vulkan, so Vulkan was definitely not established when they started focusing on Metal. Yeah, they probably should consider supporting Vulkan now, but it's nothing to do with open source. The main beneficiaries of Apple supporting Vulkan would be people porting closed-source games.

DirectX 12 Support on macOS
It's still not a great thing to do. Apple used to contribute a lot more, even if some of their stuff was exclusive to their platform. https://opensource.apple.com

Improving Firefox Responsiveness on macOS
There's quite a bit of macOS that's open source. The author links to source code in Firefox, and that source code has links to Apple's source code:

A Close Look at a Spinlock
Yes, but it's not so uncommon for "spinlocks" to evolve into not-actually-spinlocks. In the Linux kernel, spinlock_t is actually a mutex if PREEMPT_RT is enabled [1]. And Darwin has some code to do this in userspace [2], although I'm not sure if it's actually used.

Conflicting info on Dark Mode removal from Firefox for iOS
Users are complaining that the latest Firefox for iOS update has removed the "Dark mode" option from the menu:[1]
> I suffer from Diabetic Retinopathy and hence photophobia. To me, this removal is an Accessability issue.
A forum moderator who's in touch with the developers said days ago that this is an experiment affecting half of the userbase:[2]
> The team is currently doing an experiment. Since March 15, 50% of users no longer see Night Mode switch from the hamburger menu. We're using this experiment to monitor and evaluate the impact of removing, so it'll be hugely valuable to hear your feedback around this feature. Thanks!
However, Mozilla's iOS team manager doesn't know about this huge experiment and think it is a bug:[3]
> Moving Focus into the Firefox repo so it can get more love and support. This happened last release and may be the culprit that broke dark mode. We're looking into this right now.

Platform issues which disadvantage Firefox compared to first-party browsers
Yeah, Orion's support for Firefox extensions is a big red flag. These 2 issues on the Firefox-iOS tracker[0,1] around extensions and content blockers have long mentioned Orion, but there's no response from Mozilla.

last known version to work on ios 12?
https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/commit/686d36402c6a956f460abafc8f1fe19a7887a2f3 landed in v38, so it looks like v37 was the last to support iOS 12.

Why Firefox shows unsecure connection when using reader view
When you use Reader View, Firefox parses the text of the webpage and loads it as a local page. It isn't supposed to show a red slash, though. Reader Mode shows a neutral icon (📄) on the desktop version. Please open this page and click on New Issue to report this to Mozilla, and then share the link with us.
