Apple and it’s policies can feck off

[-] Nogami@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago

So precious. I bet you don’t even use Apple products.

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 14 points 4 months ago

of course not, why would i pay a premium for it.

[-] Nogami@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago

Then you have no business here. Begone. I’ll just block you in the meantime.

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 19 points 4 months ago

if you wanna block anyone who criticises apple for their business practices you'll be blocking a lotta people

[-] Snooks@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Ya, but the community is literally called apple enthusiast. You don’t sound like an enthusiast if you hate the brand and don’t use it.

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 17 points 4 months ago

It is possible I think to enjoy a company's products without defending everything the company does, especially not the things that benefit the company at the expense of the owners of said products

[-] lazynooblet@lazysoci.al 15 points 4 months ago

You can be an enthusiast and still be able to criticise. Apple has changed a lot over the years, and not always for the better.

I got this on the front page, I don't need to be an apple apologist to see the news. If you don't want non fanboys, tell your admin to disallow it there

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

How appropriate that you're bitching about people coming into your walled garden to criticize Apple.

So only Apple enthusiasts are allowed in here? Everyone else is forbidden from entering?

ok thats just peachy

[-] Holyginz@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Nobody cares who you block. Go ahead and block me. I used to have plenty of apple stuff in the past and have none now because they charge a premium for something that they barely change with each "new" iphone that comes out.

What a child lol

[-] h3mlocke@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

What a strange bird.

[-] Railcar8095@lemm.ee 9 points 4 months ago

I have a Mac at work, and apple trying to control what people does with their devices is stupid and they should be shamed for it.

Checkmate!

I thought it was “it’s” as it’s a possessive apostrophe?

The policies are Apple’s, so it’s would be an appropriate substitution, no?

[-] laughterlaughter@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

No, the possessive apostrophe doesn't apply to possessive pronouns. Apostrophes in pronouns are for abbreviations (like "he is" becomes "he's" and "it is" becomes "it's")

#1 reason I stick with PCs. Apple deciding that it knows best and deciding how users get to use their machines thanks to the Apple walled garden.

Windows would like to catch up, but thankfully you’re still free to completely break it if you want.

[-] outsideno1877@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

If you want the most freedom just use linux you can do anything you want at all given you know how to
