I am a PC/Android user, always have been.
I am a hard apple hater, I’ve tried to keep up with the new devices though, and I’ve also repaired them in the past.
I hate apple mostly due to just not liking to be locked on my device (lack of customization but that has been getting better AFAIK), the fact that the phone feels boring, the overpricing, the not friendly right to repair, the stupid lightning ports (Thanks EU), the “elitist” feeling…
But god damn are these new SOCs making me reconsider…
I was already very pleasantly surprised with the Mac computers recently. I think apple silicon is just waaaay ahead at the moment. If competition doesn’t catch up somehow soon, I think apple’s monopoly will only grow.
Also, AMD over Nvidia. Not saying it’s better, but I’ll always go team red. Just like Apple, I hate nvidia’s business practices.
Don’t get me wrong I don’t mind a good Apple bash for time to time, just saying this feels like Reddit of old. But yeah their fucking silicone is fucking crazy, who would’ve imagined a decade ago being like I prefer Apple for the hardware.
The M1 Mac book is my daily over Linux now. It’s a wonderful machine, it’s only concession is gaming can be a pain/not worth it. I like the “hobby” of it, but I know it’s not for every one.
I feel like the most early Reddit feel of Lemmy is the abundance of users who adopt Apple hate as a personality trait.
I don’t hate Apple because in most probability I’ll never use their products.
However I fucking hate Android makers for following whatever dumb trends Apple introduces.
Give back our headphone jacks you motherfuckers!
I like the stock.
I am not a cat.

Its not just hating on Apple, its hating on anything that isnt Linux.
Never seen any FreeBSD hate around here.
It’s just as exhausting as you’d imagine teenage contrarians would be.
