    Don’t forget about the disposable laptops with Windows 10 that are no longer supported because Windows 11 doesn’t like their TPM or CPU!

      Forget about TPM or CPU, Apple just stops supporting devices for no reason other than they’re old. If they even manage to survive that long.

          Two wrongs don’t make a right.

          Brother LOL I don’t understand why you’re telling me this when you’re the one talking about TPM and CPU. Of course they don’t. I’m just pointing out why many many people choose to use Windows instead of Mac.

          That said, Apple supports their phones longer than anyone else has to date.

          We weren’t talking about phones. But since we are now, software support is meaningless when the hardware is completely irreparable.

            So Microsoft and Google do the same stuff as Apple, but for some reason Apple’s the only one guilty of planned obsolescence?

            BTW I mentioned phones because you said “devices”

              They don’t. Not even close.

              for some reason Apple’s the only one guilty of planned obsolescence?

              Who told you that?

                Microsoft’s own Surface devices are among the least repairable on the planet. And Google has a browser and search monopoly, and almost all of their hardware is disposable once they get bored with it.

                  I don’t think you know much about Apple’s reputation for repairability. Because they’re definitely not.

                  And Google has a browser and search monopoly

                  Okay so you’re just taking this opportunity to air whatever grievances come across your mind?

                    I said that Microsoft and Google are guilty of the same stuff as Apple. You said they don’t. So I provided examples.

                    Apple is the only one that gets the blame on the Internet, especially here in the Fediverse, but they’re all guilty.

      Sounds like someone who wants to hang onto their horse because it just works, but the mess that horses create on the road way affect everyone.

        My 7 year old penguin can lap most peoples horses.

        Why would i want to use a new horse that comes crippled, always watches me, supports genocide, keeps putting the saddle back on that I keep telling it I don’t want to use, prevents me from riding it the way i want, and tells me my horse and assless chaps are no good every few years?
