The one good thing I can say about apple is that they at least push back against this kind of bullshit, even if they only do so for marketing.

The other side is that they'll also push back against good stuff for the consumer since everything they do is completely out of self interest.

Your gonna have to back up that sort of statement. I'm not an apple fanboy, but I take security and privacy seriously, and they seem to really be on the consumers side in that regard. Please inform me how they push back against "good stuff" for the consumer

They are going to answer with some stupid reasoning like removing the 3.5mm jack.

But truly Apple stance on right-to-repair really is their only non-defendable stance. And this is coming from an Apple fanboy.

Don’t think you understand what objectively means.

[-] TheBat@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I do, unlike certain someone drinking Apple's kool aid and defending corporate bullshit.

[-] blitzen@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

I’m not defending anything, other than basic usage of the English language. I’m not saying Bluetooth is better, objectively or subjectively, than a wired connection. You’re free to prefer one over the other, but any preference is just that, a preference.

Oh I don't know, starting or popularising the trend of gluing the phone together, removing the 3.5mm jack, not adopting the standardised method for post-sms communication (rcs vs imessage) to name a few.
