Yeah, this was the case shortly after they release of model 5T or around thst time. That's when they stopped being the only company that would provide instructions to root your device, and guess what... Back then, if you rooted your device the warranty was still valid!

    There's no linear path to progress, many of your questions perhaps would make no sense under that scenario. But I like your prompt.

    I am thinking of a world where there was no centuries of slavery in the west. So no imperial power in Europe or North america. So, probably a ver bleak situation in Europe. Also, no chocolate, coffee, corn!!, or potatoes...

    Meanwhile if the Americas and its people would continue on their own, probably the Incas would have expanded more or just live in constant war with Mesoamericans... Maybe the latter would have expanded north...

    And their technology may have "advanced" toward an integral way of living conneted to nature instead of the highly optimized exploitation and demeaning that Illuminism wrote on our frontal lobes as the maximal case of success

    I like these thoughts. Not a writer myself, but I can see some novel saga growing in this alternate timeline...

    Speaking of the Mayas, check out EZLN. I was at Zapatista's schools in the high mountains of Chiapas and it was amazing to me seeing how they live there and how they reference themselves, individually, as inheritors of Mayan culture...
