i'll chose it because reddit is a cesspit and the fediverse has very little content.

They do it because rich individuals like Elon have a vice grip control over the tech industry in this country and you don't need to do it anymore once one of them deigns to give you a reputation as a hard worker that deserves the money (that they themselves don't deserve).

Tesla is a driving force for both the automotive industry electrifying and worsening worker rights, safety, pay, and labor practices.

Only the bougie and the rich focus on the first part even though the second part has much bigger consequences for humanity.

Ah. Well if I’m not mistaken Lemmy is mostly Android / FOSS biased so I’m not surprised some people might have the “Apple bad” mindset. Honestly why do people care what products other people use? I read a comment the other day about an Android user despairing that some feature Google is implementing (don’t remember which) might make some Android users jump ship to Apple… Ok who cares? Why so much emotional investment in something so trivial? It sounds just as crazy when you flip it, “Oh no some of my Apple friends are switching to Android or PC” …. A phone is an everyday appliance. Do you care what brand your neighbor’s kitchen appliances are? That’s how you should feel about phones IMHO.

iphones are status symbols so they get to be ascribed w the same emotional irrationality that other status symbols get like cars and clothes.
