It’s not the applause of awe, it’s the applause of “fucking finally.”

Same thing happens after Google events. The last big feature that made everyone lose their shit was Google deciding to actually update their phones for more than a couple years. Shitty update support has been something iOS users have mocked Android about for a many many years.

There are other examples, but the point is that both ecosystems have reached the point where they’re just cloning each other 90% of the time.
