@marcoarment I mean, not to put too fine a point on it, but Apple just had another record quarter. Also, making beautiful apps like Overcast for the App Store makes you a Cook regime collaborator, not a member of the resistance.
@stroughtonsmith Be careful with that Moneky's Paw! The UX shift in macOS over the years indicates Apple is now selling far more Macs to iPhone users than iPhones to Mac users.
