> There are sooo many issues that are still not fixed, years after being reported. Apple's Support site has pages where there's hundreds of people saying "I have this problem too", and no comment from an Apple dev.
With a billion end-users this is really just noise. In any case this is a meaningless comparison. With Linux there is nowhere and nobody to even ask for this kind of support.
The answer is always some version of RTFM or fix it yourself.
- marcus_holmes 6y ago> With Linux there is nowhere and nobody to even ask for this kind of support. This is not true. Every time I've run into a Linux problem, googling the error has always produced an answer. Often more than one answer. Often mutually incompatible answers. But one of them usually works. In the end. For Apple, googling the problem often leads to an Apple Support page that has no answers, just an endless stream of "I have this problem too". > The answer is always some version of RTFM or fix it yourself. At least you can fix it yourself.
