I hope Apple Fanbois finally snap out of it with this one... but I doubt it

    Snap out of what to do what, exactly?

    Snap out of the Apple reality distortion field... and stop believing this company somehow is not like all others: just a psychopathic entity with insatiable greed

    Ok I’m snapped out.

    Now what am I supposed to do, again?

    ETA: I don’t think Apple is some benevolent entity. I just think they make good hardware and software. I think they’re more privacy focused than Google. I think I can still expect software of there’s to function in a few years.

    Yeah the walled garden sucks for user freedom. Yeah it all costs more than it should. Yeah Tim Apple is a bootlicker.

    Google is barely better on these points, and seems to be trying to lock it all down while feeding the AI slop machine as much as possible.

    I don’t have time to deal with GrapheneOs let alone some wack Linux homebrew phone.

    And let’s not even get started on Microsoft.

    So until somebody figures out how to resurrect WebOS or something else worth a damn on mobile, I guess I’ll stick with iPhone and macOS.

    The ones who care about anything else but style and prestige have „snapped out“ of it a long time ago. Even people covering Apple news who have previously been very biased are now becoming more and more critical about Apple as a company and especially Tim Cook.

    The question is, where to go instead? Google sucks ass much more. You can only choose between two if you want anything useable for a non-nerd.

    People also keep using Instagram and Whatsapp but no one believes Meta is a great company. And these are even either completely useless (Instagram) or at least easily replaceable (Whatsapp to Signal).
