Yes, and instead of writing an open standard or adapting Vulkan when it came around, they instead decided to double down on proprietary and moved to Metal 2.

I mean, Metal is a good API and they designed it first. They could've decided to abandon it when Vulkan came out, but I guess they just didn't want to make their API worse. Not ideal, yes, but I don't really blame them for the decision.
