Its crazy how many left leaning socialist types are on here, yet everytime apple, the second most profitable company in the world and largest by market cap is brought up, they come out of the woodwork to defend their disgusting lock-in and infantilization that they force down the throats of their mostly unknowing consumers, who then use it as status symbol against poor people and tech literate people who understand apples lock in and don't want part of it. What upsets me is the HN also takes part of this even though they are tech literate. And some of these people even claim to want to "fix capitalism" or whatever. Apple fanboys will respond something like "we don't like lock in but android is just to yucky for me" or "we don't like lock in but my grandma might be scammed otherwise." Back on topic im disgusted to see this trend continue in the US, though I am not surprised
