Jeez, if nvidia hardware is "open and extensible" by your standards, they must have been really lowered by Apple's shenanigans.

  If I'm not mistaken, Apple was the one that blacklisted Nvidia hardware, not the other way around. You can still download bog-standard UNIX drivers for Nvidia hardware, Apple just won't let you install them.

    It’s understandable when you consider why, but that doesn’t fit you narrative.

      It was understandable that Apple stopped shipping Nvidia hardware. Blacklisting Nvidia hardware and preventing the installation of Nvidia drivers is another thing, though, and goes too far in speaking on the user's behalf. If that's somehow more of a "narrative" than Apple's perspective on the matter, I don't know what to tell you.

        Can you event change the GPU for an nvidia on any Apple device? If you are talking from a hackintosh perspective, I understand they are perfectly allowed to not caring about that.

    What are “bog-standard UNIX drivers” and what other GPU vendors supply such a driver that can be installed on a Mac?
