Crapple
For the hate-cult members circle-jerking over imaginary arguments with “fan boys” here. Actual Apple users either completely agree with the criticism, or simply don’t even care.
Feel free to hate on Apple the company, but stop trying so hard to make this place a home for baseless toxicity.
Edit: And just to drive home how pathetic this is, here’s a link to an article posted elsewhere in the fediverse about Google being shady af. Go look through those comments for a single soul saying anything about “Google/Android fanboys”.
What is this gaslighting you're trying to pull here? You're really going to pretend that Apple fanboys don't exist and instead start criticising some sort of perceived toxicity from a "hate cult" against Apple? That's before you get into some bizarre Google strawman. The reality is that these Apple fanboys with values antithetical to software freedom exist, and want walled gardens everywhere.
EU, I belive in you!
I suppose they can charge to use their own side-loading software, or their alternative app store, but I'm not sure what happens if a third party offers a side-loading platform that doesn't pay Apple.
I suppose they can just refuse to allow such platforms to exist, but the EU may not feels that satisfies their grievances. Eventually they're going to have to require side-loading.
Did Tim Cook have a bad trip or something? Apple normally isn’t this blatantly shitty.
And Apples file system sucks
What? APFS is fantastic. That’s not really disputed.
Yes, well, the whole point is that them following the law means that their assistance warranting fees (like running a store) isn't required. So I hope they get nailed.
