So, what? We're just straight up making shit up about Mac now when trashing it on Lemmy?
Its literally been over a decade since the last time Apple charged for an OS update
And I believe they stopped charging for OS updates before Microsoft did, though I could be misremembering.
They 100% did
Don't get me wrong, there's plenty to gripe about with apple, just like every tech company, but I swear half the complaints I hear about Apple products on lemmy are either outdated or just plain wrong
For some reason the anti-Apple circle jerk is supercharged on Lemmy. I'll never understand why people get themselves so worked up over a brand they never have to do business with
I didn't care nearly as much till I started working at a company that is 100% apple only.
That said, I try to keep my complaints focused on things I found aggravating.
