To each their own, but I don't recall Apple ever mainlining any of their drivers on Linux. You're rightfully angry on the laptop side of things, but Apple is much worse than Qualcomm when it comes to open source support for their phones.
Qualcomm probably shouldn't have promised Linux support in the first place. Everyone seems to love Apple's hardware even though you're practically stuck with macOS. Had Qualcomm just stuck to Windows-only, they would've probably received a much better reception by the tech press.
- dismalaf 5mo agoAt least Apple tells you they don't support anything except their own OS, Qualcomm just pretends to offer support.
- mlinhares 5mo agoApple doesn’t sell general purpose computers outside of their own hardware so this doesn’t make any sense.
- izacus 5mo agoIt makes absolutely the same amount of sense as the original critique - you just prefer to defend one bad actor because you like the brand.
