This isn’t just about i****es—it’s about how deep we’ve all bought into the ecosystem.

    People are different, different people like different things, and they care about different features of a device.

    I never had any apple device, but I help a lot other people with iphones and macs, and I have to tell you they are just devices. I’m familiar with their features, but I don’t care, this whole thing is only about you. If you want an iphone buy one. If you don’t want one, just move on, life is too short for getting mad about unnecessary thing like this.

      We already have too few options to pick from and these days it’s often the case that we don’t even get to choose for ourselves.

      The company I work for has a new device security policy that states you need direct approval from the CTO to use anything other than a Mac for work - and even with the approval you’re restricted to Windows or three specific Debian distros.

      I tried looking for a new job and from the first three companies I spoke to, two of them also mandated the use of Macs.
