I’m getting real sick of Apple. I used to be a pretty big Apple fanboy, but over time I have been starting to resent them more and more.
It started a few years ago, when I needed a new laptop because the 2016 MacBook Pro had the backlight not working defect and I was out of the period to get it fixed.
I looked at the MacBook Air, but even to this day, it only has 256gb hard drive and 8gb ram. After upgrading the storage space, the price was insanely high. I don’t mind paying extra for an upgrade to storage and ram, but not $400 more for something that should be the standard amount at this point.
Then iMessage being locked to iPhone. Since I’m from the US but don’t live there I’m pretty locked into iOS for iMessage unless I want to deal with and pay for international messaging.
Now, once they’re forced to open the app store, something that a lot of people want, they are being so petty about it.
I just got an iPhone 15 to upgrade from my
iPhone XR, but I’m really thinking about just moving to a pixel and saying buy to Apple for
Good.
You know what really sucks? Is that I’m in the exact opposite situation you’re in. I’ve been using Pixels since they came out and androids since the Galaxy S3.
I’m so done with Google and their shitty, inconsistent services that I’ve been waiting for Apple to open up iOS to sideloading and Firefox so that I could leave Android.
Turns out the grass is brown and dying on both sides and we consumers have a choice between two trash options.
