I don't care if anyone has a Xiaomi, Oneplus, Samsung, etc. Each brand is using a modified version of Android, and they chose to be compatible with each other. But for example the "blue vs green bubble" drama is a thing specifically because of Apple locking their unsuspecting users into a closed ecosystem. And it sure isn't Android's fault for not being compatible with it.

The more power a company like this gains, the worse will it be for the whole industry.

Is it Apple-bad time again?

Oh, right, I forgot, it's ALWAYS Apple-bad time on lemmy.

Apple IS bad, but Jesus Christ

Not if you care about privacy and security, the environment (comparatively), user experience, industrial design, and any number of things that are important to tons of customers.

No company is perfect, nor are they beyond criticism. But the lemmy Apple-bad hive-mind is a bunch of people who can't see past their Linux memes.

We'll change to Apple-good time once Apple actually does something pro-consumer again.

No, you won't.
