Daniel JalkutApple should run its own ActivityPub network. It would be the most affordable “takeover” of Twitter and perhaps its best and last chance to run a viable social network (aside from iMessage).
Marc Edwards@danielpunkass I don’t think running a social network sounds like fun. Making good hardware seems easier and more profitable.
@marcedwards But Apple runs iMessage, a TV/movie studio, a cloud services division, etc. None of those sounds as easy or profitable as making more iPhones.
@danielpunkass Maybe the line they shouldn’t really cross is ad-supported businesses? There seems to be loads of hardware opportunities that are adjacent to their current businesses—routers, more speakers, more HomeKit stuff in general (lights, security cameras), and just continuing to stay on top of Mac hardware etc.
Brian Grinter@marcedwards @danielpunkass still got my Airport 😊
