Apple does a phenomenal job in providing solutions to problems they created in the first place.

  • Get rid of ports on the computer ➡️ Buy adapters
  • Get rid of the headphone jack ➡️ Buy AirPods
  • Proprietary lightning port ➡️ Buy more unstandardized cables/adapters
  • No expandable memory ➡️ Buy an iCloud subscription
  • No spare/replaceable battery ➡️ Buy a battery replacement service
  • Little thing breaks ➡️ Shoulda bought AppleCare to make it somewhat less expensive
