Unpopular reality check:

Most people in real life just call it Apple TV. They know what they mean. "The Apple one".

Renaming the service to Apple TV is cleaner, and totally a non-issue. Only nerds obsess about naming these things. Nobody in real life will ever say the sentence "The TV app for Apple TV on Apple TV". Only people here do.

@viticci why would anyone use apple in the first place
@waifu @viticci
Because everything else is so much worse?
@freediverx @viticci apple is overpriced proprietary trash that forces you into their ecosystem just like microsoft is doing lately. No idea what you're comparing it to.

@waifu @viticci
I dislike Apple for the same reasons I dislike any other mega corporation. But despite a decline in software quality over the last several years, their products offer better quality and design, and are far less user-hostile than anything from competitors like, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, or Facebook.

It’s not that they’re great but that they’re the least bad, especially when it comes to forced advertising, for which I have zero tolerance.
