The thing is, I wasn’t saying Airpods owners (priorities) were wrong. All I was saying is that there is actually a glutton of devices that perform the same way as airpods do when a former poster suggest airpods were unique in the market. It’s a factually accurate post and it’s not critical of airpod owners. So getting downvoted for that kind of comment is weird and there’s literally no reason anyone would do this if it wasn’t for brand loyalty. I bet if this was a Bose, Sony or any other household electrical brand thread which wasn’t Apple, my posts would have been upvoted because that’s literally how those posts are received in any other topic on HN. I’m sure if you look through other Apple threads you see a similar pattern of comments that aren’t negative nor factually inaccurate but still get downvoted too. I see it happen a lot on HN these days and frankly I’m sick of people abusing their voting privileges.
