Comment on Apple steps up war of words with European regulators
undefined@lemmy.hogru.ch 6 months agoI 100% agree. I’m so sick of Apple being attacked in the European market. Look, I love open source software but I don’t want my phone running a bunch of shit that couldn’t even make into the App Store.
then don’t install anything outside of their walled garden but don’t force it on everyone just because you don’t want it.
I moved away from apple a long time ago as I wanted to use my phone my way. there’s many reasons why some apps don’t make it into Google play/Apple store, doesn’t mean they’re bad. ad free you tube apps, streaming apps, terminal apps just to mention a few.
You moved away from Apple so I’m not really understanding your lingering problem with Apple.
I moved away from Nissan to Audi a few years ago, I don’t go around criticizing Nissan cars now that I’ve switched. Why would I?

Expecting logic from apple users is an effort in futility.
I always need to keep this in mind when interacting with them.
What if there were only two car companies?
Is it Apple’s fault that there are only two major operating systems for smartphones? Can’t the same be said about computers? Sure there’s Linux but why doesn’t anyone care about macOS doing basically the same proprietary things as iOS?
It’s like everyone wants a cut of their profits simply because they’re successful.
I may not use apple any more but there are plenty of others who do who would like the opportunity to install what they want.
Also apples logic is a little flawed, if I buy a mac I can install what I want, why should a phone or tablet be different.

Great! These regulations won’t affect you!
It’s literally nothing but a net-gain for those who want to use or make software without apple’s approval.
How can you be such a child that you want to take that power away from them simply because you don’t want it?
