My employer issued me a #Mac laptop when I got here. It's a nice one. M3 MBPro 16" with plenty of RAM and storage.
When I'm at home, I mostly use a #Dell PC desktop running #Windows/ #ManjaroWSL2 or #Ubuntu #Linux.
I realized something this morning, as I was exchanging #iMessages from the comfort of my keyboard and large screen, and unlocking @1password with my Apple Watch:
The ONLY things I truly love these days about the Mac experience are those things that also represent huge vendor lock-in that should be downright illegal.
There is zero reason that we shouldn't have an interop protocol so I can send messages that my family can see from my keyboard, and there's also no reason my watch shouldn't be able to use an interop protocol to unlock my computer and password manager - NO MATTER WHAT KIND OF COMPUTER OR WHAT OPERATING SYSTEM IT'S RUNNING.
It's a great example of how Capitalism can hurt consumers in the absence of strong regulation. I don't begrudge Apple making a buck off their hardware and software! They make GREAT laptops and IMO their phones and tablets are pretty nice too! But making things that should be easy and work across platforms ONLY work with their hardware and software just feels wrong to me.

Comment envoyer et recevoir des iMessages d'Apple sous Windows ? - ZDNET
Vous êtes devant votre PC Windows ? Vous n'avez plus besoin de décrocher votre iPhone lorsque vous recevez un nouveau message. Les applications Phone Link de Microsoft et Unison d'Intel fonctionnent avec iMessage d'Apple. Mais attention, Unison ne prend en charge que Windows 11.

So the #FBI is telling me that I should ignore text messages from #Android‽
Also, #Android cult members (I say that in love 🙃) should ignore #iPhone / #iMessages‽

BlackSquirrelz 👾Writing my own script to parse chat.db. Is it necessary? No. But doing it by yourself means you need to use your brain to understand what other tools are doing and what their limitations may be. Plus it’s just fun. #macos #forensics #dfir #apple #imessages
AtomicAllianceMeine Familie (Frau und Sohn) haben die #Memojis auf dem #iPhone entdeckt. Die Chats in #iMessages sind voll von teils verstörenden viedoschnipseln. 🙈🤣
GadgetBondDeleting sensitive messages is more complicated than it seems. One man is demanding £5 million from #Apple after his "deleted" #iMessages were found by his wife, ending his marriage.
