They did a number lock-in driven things that clearly have global damaging effect. Like they refused to support Vulkan, they were the main force behind sabotaging using SPIR-V for WebGPU, they also were quite harmful for DASH and a number of other Web related standardization efforts, just because they wanted to cement their lock-in control.
Same applies to their ban on competing browsers in their application store which should have been simply forbidden by anti-trust a long time ago.
When a company so consistently behaves in such nasty manner, I'd say they don't deserve any respect, let alone loyalty.
- actuator 6y agoAh, they certainly don't have my loyalty, or any company for that matter. I try to diversify the devices/services I use so that one company doesn't have power over my daily life and I can switch over easily if I want.
