“Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai visited Trump at Mar-a-Lago after the election, and Google donated $1 million to the inauguration fund”
So is Google and every major company
You're right it's both now can we fuck off with the "buh buh buh the other company!" bullshit?
Article is about Apple not Google.
On nerdy sites like Lemmy people tend to fawn over Google and they can do no wrong
And every slight Apple does is The Worst Ever
If Google does the same thing, out come the excuses. 😀

Uhhhh... What. My experience has been the literal opposite. People here hate Google
And still rock an Android phone proudly
I don't know about "proudly." Preferred to Apple? Sure.
Simping the worlds largest ad company is weird to me
But that’s just me 🤷🏻♂️
I don't know who you're referring to here... Is that how you read my comments?
I don't use apple for the same reason I don't use fisher price as an adult. You are free to use your technology made for babies that's beside the point. The point is that the article in discussion is about Tim Cook and Apple providing a recent bribe to Trump.
Your comment is providing no value. You are attempting whataboutism and really shows the type of person you are more than anything.
To be clear, if googl was caught bribing and someone said "buh buh buh Apple!" Id be saying the same thing. Stop sucking dick like they owe you something to take a side.
When Google bribes Trump with a 24k gold gift let's discuss Google then ok?
So if it’s only an 18k carat gift it’s just fine? Because Google are the good guys
Is the article about Google or Apple? Really easy question for you.
That may have been true a few years ago but not anymore. Google gets lots of hate on Lemmy, Reddit, and various other tech sites.

I buy pixel phones, because out of the sea of bullshit, it's at least capable of being rooted/flash to a new os. The PinePhone sadly isn't ready.
