I wish Apple would apply at least a little pressure on devs to make all their iOS games playable on M series Macs.

I played a beta of Warframe on my M1 and it had a few easily smoothed out oddities with dealing with Mac interface issues, but was otherwise fine. Once it released for real, it could no longer be played on my Mac. You just can’t download it.

That was the question, yes, and clearly that was the implication.

My suggestion that the other commenter probably didn't need to post their purchasing intent on a literal apple enthusiast community was based on the recommendation being nothing to do with Apple, and almost every sentence in it focusing on a political justification. There are countless communities more appropriate for those discussions on Lemmy.

That user had already decided they weren't buying any Apple product anymore. That's fine and I wish them well, but it doesn't answer my question, isn't related to the Apple event I referenced, was contra to the phrase Apple Enthusiast, and to be honest was tedious.

Sometimes people just want to buy some technology, not be lectured about monopolies, fascism and EU policy. Not every thread on this platform needs to be an exercise in holier-than-thou, guilt-based anti-capitalism.
