No chance, look at HN, the top comments are defending Apple's stance. If even tech savvy geeks lap up Apple's propaganda, what hope is there for the average user?
- rambambram 3y agoExactly. Try to forget the average user for a while. The niche is smaller but still exists. I think it's possible. Think of a combination of Jobs's vision of a hub-and-spoke model of computing devices, powered by SBC's and Waveshare components and open source software. For a start. It won't be premium devices as people are now expecting of Apple devices, but there comes a point where people are willing to trade in nicer hardware for nicer software and functionality. I don't know who the early adopters are going to be of this, but I know a lot of comment sections on HN with people also fed up about the direction of big tech.
