- echelon 6y agoSmartphones are very much computers and intended for general purpose computing. I think people with this notion either work at Apple, love their iPhone, or have lots of AAPL. Please see what their behavior is doing to the rest of us. Fixing it is more important than any personal stake you have in this.
- johncolanduoni 6y agoGame consoles run many applications that aren’t games (particularly entertainment), I’m still not seeing the distinction. Even their historical lockdown trends are similar; phones, even early smartphones, have traditionally been locked down and newer consoles are generally less so (e.g. UWP development on Xbox can be done without being a studio and buying a special console). In fact your ability to throw a dart on a board of phone models and hit one that you can root without fighting your manufacturer is as high as its ever been. For what it’s worth I’ve never worked at Apple, down’t own any AAPL (unless you count indexes), and have bought Android phones off and on. So I’d focus less on acusing everyone who disagrees with you of alterior motives.
