apple users in a nutshell
(sh.itjust.works)
This is one of the shitposts of all time.
It's a literal shit post
Exclusive too
No, you have to pay extra for that
I’m surprised you could afford it, bro.
But is it exclusive? I won't upvote otherwise.
NFT bros
I would sooner rather buy a bag of actual deluxe dog shit than an NFT.
It can at least have some kind of utility. Like hurling it at NFT bros, for example.

"Apple users" is a bit harsh, the fans can definitely get this culty but it's not like the functional-but-overpriced hardware is literal shit. Someone else said NFT "investors", I'd go for fashion people who spend hundreds on a sweatshop-produced t-shirt which just has the logo of the company that's ripping them off on it (which to be fair does describe some people's relationship with Apple!)
Eh, it’s the cult of personality that goes with the CEO, too. Jobs worshippers, Musk worshippers, whatever. Defending billionaires and corporations that don’t even know the person’s name, or care.

Android User here. Never owned any Apple device.
But they're fucking good quality. Anyone can see that. So what's the problem?
I like Android 'cos I like dicking about with it. Some people don't want to dick about with their phones, they want to do other stuff that could be more interesting.
I carry 2 phones because I have a government job, so if any work is done on my phone it becomes subject to Open Records requests. If I have to carry 2 phones I might as well have both operating systems.
So my personal phone is Android and my work phone is an iPhone.
I don't understand how people prefer iPhones. The hardware is nice, but the OS is horrible. They came up with some neat stuff in 2008, but it feels like they haven't improved much since then. Even informing the greater flexibility of Android - it's just easier to use. Hell, just turning wifi or Bluetooth on and off is a hassle on the iPhone versus a single swipe and tap on Android.
Hell, just turning wifi or Bluetooth on and off is a hassle on the iPhone versus a single swipe and tap on Android.
What on earth are you talking about? I’m not going to claim Apple invented it (because they likely stole it from another os like android) but they’ve had the single swipe down control panel on iOS to turn off Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, airplane mode, etc for like a decade+. I have Apple devices, and trust me, there’s plenty to shit on without making stuff up.
What he's talking about is probably that turning off WiFi via quick settings or whatever it's called doesn't actually turn off WiFi, you still have to proceed all the way to the settings app.

I think the problems include the fact that an actual apple computer starts at 1000 and going higher than 8GB of RAM and 256G of storage costs you another 1000 because hardware isn't really modular and storage and ram are a huge tool of market segmentation.
Meanwhile a traditional desktop starts at $7000.
It's like they have lifted everything but the absolutely cheapest market segments out of reach of virtually any normal folks.
Apple has that break the lense on a camera and your phone starts to brick it's self as it thinks it's been repaired by someone who's not apple

Every whale in a P2W game.
So what you're saying is that low level workers are socialised to feel like lesser (even though the pandemic really proved who actually matters in the scheme of the whole job system) and also feel trapped by the design of the employment system, under capitalism and angrily try to take some ground back by having just one nice thing, bought with the feeling of pride, but are actually accidentally buying into the system that oppresses them.
Yes. Pride in materialism is a horrible vice to fall for.
Bluechecks
I wish people didn't care what technology other people choose to buy.
that's one of the arguments I saw in favour of sync
I assumed this was about Twitter blue checks, I think I prefer that interpretation.

I want to break free off APPLE and I can’t because I love this app called CLIPS.
It’s a video editing app that allows me to hold down the button and take a few seconds of video. Lift finger, video stops recording. Hold button down again and the next clip connects to previous. And so on. Also a ton of great filters.
Addicted to it.
Please show me the android alternative.
Not kidding. I can stop being a shit eater for this.
Don't most camera apps have a pause button you can use while filming that gives the same result? Or am I missing something?

Maybe? I dunno, I've never used either.

Samsungs have this built in natively. Press record. Press pause to pause. Press record for more. Press stop to finish.
If you want the exact UX, then I dunno.

No one cares more about what devices people who use iPhones use than Android Users.
I had a stroke reading that.
Guess it's hard to type coherently when you're eating shit

Except I've experienced the exact opposite. The iPhone users are the ones who complain about android users messing up their iMessage chats while simultaneously being too fucking stupid to realize it's Apple who is screwing them.

Apple user here. Can confirm. My excuse is that Apple knows its shit and I am at the period of my life where just thinking about SUDO gives me allergy. So, as long as I do not have to deal with that shit, I am OK paying for this shit. Hell, I am paying for ChatGPT so that it does internet search for me and summarizes the results for me. My time is more valuable for me than dealing with that shit.
Not suggesting that my way is right way. Many people do like to play with that shit, customize it, fine tune. Those are not users for apple ecosystem. To each their own shit. It is nice to have a choice of shit.
I'm not a part of the apple ecosystem, but i have the same attitude towards tech these days. I dont want to be spending time debugging and tuning stuff just to get it working. Tech is tools, that shit just needs to work, fuck tinkering with everything just to get it working properly.
I feel the same, but find things getting shittier and shittier. I'm paying more and more for less and less. Then I stumble on an open source project that does all that I want and it's free.
Bitwarden vs LastPass Joplin vs Evernote A million different foss projects for all the shit Google has shut down...
Sometimes spending a little time setting stuff up, ends up saving a huge hastle migrating away from the commercial project that is going to fail unless they fuck over their users.

People who smoke.
The only thing that is shit about iPhones besides the price is ENROLLING THEM IN FUCKING MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS. Verizon, answer my fucking requests for auto enrollment. Fuck Apple Configurator 2.
