Comment on An Apple fan says they lost '20 years of digital life' after using an Apple gift card
adespoton@lemmy.ca 2 days agoI’m still missing your point.
I’ve got all my apps I’ve downloaded backed up, at least for macOS. iOS… easier to grab the older ones off a pirate repository once Apple stops listing them.
Are you trying to say that everyone should be running Debian Stable without non-free on commodity x86 or RISC-V hardware with only open source hardware gerbers and no proprietary chips?

Nope. At this point, I see that nothing I say will matter. The die has been cast and it’s no longer worth trying.
Enjoy your Apple ecosystem.

You do realize this happens to people on Android all the time as well, right? Google shuts down accounts for random inexplicable reasons all the time, and when that happens the user loses all of their apps purchased through Google’s store. What are you suggesting he do differently? Other than just…not have a smart phone or apps on it?

It’s cool to hate Apple though, and if you use Apple or like them then you’re a shill or something.

Oh, the lack of self-awareness
