I recently made the switch for my primary work computer and I’m thrilled with it. Before this I was a Mac fan for decades. When they took away my ability to say “no” I lost all faith. Apple product managers please take note. “Remind me again later” is dehumanizing and offensive. What happened to “no”? Oh well. Does fuck off forever work for you? Now I just need a phone that’s not Apple or Google. Any suggestions?
