How the fuck did Apple convince so many idiots that their product is superior. I just got an iPhone 14 that I have to use for work and iOS is absolute ass water. Holy fuck, it is so insanely bad that I compiled a list as a way to cope with it. But it really doesn't help as I still have to use it, and it feels like I'm wading through 3ft of shit in slow motion. It's absolutely perplexing how people think something with dog shit workflows and almost no customization is the better option. My Pixel with LineageOS runs circles around it.
Initially by giving a bunch away free to known Hollywood clubbers and expanding out from there, word of mouth started a demand before it even had a chance to be properly advertised.
Next by cultivating a certain aesthetic that is preferable to the wealthy: Clean simplistic unadorned and different from all the plebes.
Third extend that same aesthetic to the commercials, unfavorably compare the frumpy no-fun businessman with the young hip creative trust fund kiddy.
