I do not understand the meme. Do you mean complaining about absent system requirements?
Windows users complaining that a Linux (or at a stretch, even Mac) app doesn't have a Windows version.
Yup. I work in media, and there are a lot of media programs that are Mac exclusive. Even worse, Apple insists on breaking lots of them with every update. So at work, we always have to decline updates for a week or two until all of our programs have a chance to update and unfuck everything Apple did.
The worst case was when Apple came out with the M1 Mac’s. One of our programs took almost a year and a half to finally get updated to work on M1 processors. And of course, this was right around the time that we were looking into upgrading our Macs, because our existing ones were starting to show their age. So we just had to sit on our hands (and put the funding towards something else) until the mission-critical programs we needed all got their proper updates.
A week or two lol... I work for a tech company and we're usually 6 months delayed on macos updates because of the mountain of IT malware they have to validate and make work together for every release.
