Non apple users love an excuse to smash apple
I donβt see this as an apple problem. Itβs just an insight into the broader centralized world being forced down our throats. Microsoft google Spotify YouTube and on and on. Zoom out people
#Bitcoin #nostr fix this
PS Fuck π
I don't need an excuse to smash apple, I just don't understand how many rug pulls it takes for people to see what's up?
I feel for folks, but man...what a shit show.
Yep the problem is not apple its the tyranny of all large corporations. Zoom out
Use Android, Linux, Open Office, Open Source.
Avoid big brands like apple and Microsoft.
This.
I'm primarily an Android guy but I'm not getting smug over this. You're joking if you think Google is gonna be any better.
Luckily we can sideload on Android. Hopefully iPhone users get the same benefit soon.
Apple has always aggressively pursued monopolies. They want to trap you in their ecosystem so they can overcharge you for their services and proprietary bullshit while locking out competition. They deserve the bashing.
As an Android user I agree.
And I don't feel a false sense of safety from these recent developments or future ones.
I'm upset for my nostr friends this currently directly impacts. But this affects all of us. However indirect it may seem to some now.
I'm under no assumptions this won't or can't migrate to other devices, or centralized services.
So fuck Apple sure. But fuck gatekeepers too. Buying an android is definitely not, "the way"
As a Android user, I'm fully conscious that Google will play the same sort of games and deplatform clients from their store. It's just a matter of time. Same can go with Microsoft to a degree as they have already uninstalled apps without your permission going as far back as 2015.
You're only really safe if your on a open-source OS like Linux or BSD.
People need to start going out of their way in supporting small businesses whether brick and mortar or otherwise and not handing over money to big corporations that clearly hate people like us and what we stand for. Why fund them?
If your in the market for a new phone buy a Pinephone + Waydroid for Android emulation or install Ubuntu Touch.

Taking it up the ass is popular today..ππ©πΊπ€
