Updates - Lemmy.World

So, what? We’re just straight up making shit up about Mac now when trashing it on Lemmy?

Its literally been over a decade since the last time Apple charged for an OS update

And I believe they stopped charging for OS updates before Microsoft did, though I could be misremembering.

They 100% did

Don’t get me wrong, there’s plenty to gripe about with apple, just like every tech company, but I swear half the complaints I hear about Apple products on lemmy are either outdated or just plain wrong

For some reason the anti-Apple circle jerk is supercharged on Lemmy. I’ll never understand why people get themselves so worked up over a brand they never have to do business with

In general, the anti-apple cult is much stronger than the supposed pro-apple cult. I haven't seen people really give that much of a fuck about apple positively in years but if you prefer an iphone, some people insist you're obsessed with them.
I’ve met people who won’t date someone because they have an Android. Never once seen it the other way around.
My cousin’s and brother love to give me shit about having an android because it screws up group chats on their end. Sorry, but not getting a new phone and getting used to an entirely new system because a couple messages get wonky, and only because you phone’s manufacturer are elitist assholes.
If someone is shallow enough to reject a potential relationship based on phone choice, I don't think it was going to work out.
