Imagine if MS did the same thing with windows.
If Microsoft had done the same thing with Windows, Apple as we know it today wouldn't exist, if they even existed at all.
To me, it is mind-blowing that, nevertheless, (most) Apple fans are perfectly happy with the shoe on the other foot.
- ZipCordManiac 15y agoAs a longtime Mac user (since the 80s) , it pains me to think my next purchase won't be a Macintosh, but I can't ignore the writing on the wall any longer. Apple used to be about freedom and creativity - now they just want to give the best user experience while keeping users safe and maximizing profits. Not an all-together horrible goal, but also not the kind of computer I want to use. I want a computer, not a toaster or a microwave. People have for years called mac kid computers, and I never really agreed with them before now. This kind of development really puts the final nail in the coffin though. These computers are made for people who simply want a locked down boring experience. It's a sign of the times, just look at the TSA.
