Ha, as if the situation with macOS is much better? The OS space is a (lopsided) duopoly, both Microsoft and Apple know it and have pulled down their sleeves long ago.
- hbn 1y agoYes, I have years of experience with both and macOS is way less of a user-hostile experience. People buy Apple products because they like them.
- nottorp 1y agoBecause they like them better than Windows actually. They're both crap, Apple is less crap. This post typed on a macbook pro.
- RajT88 1y agoSome people buy Apple products because they have succeeded in making it a minor status symbol. It's interesting, because one symbol is wealth (Apple devices cost more), but the other is a symbol of being a creative professional. I would describe myself via metaphor: the redneck who likes to race cars, and doesn't care about the car as long as it has most of its wheels, and he'll drive the hell out of it.
