Bad, non-consumer centric marketing forces poor changes.

I don’t think so, the companies (mostly Apple), are making these changes and twisting them to make it sound presentable, but in reality, they’re making it less usable for the consumer unless they pay more money. They continue to do this because people still support it by buying them each year. Plenty of people at my campus are Apple fanboys for life and upgrade to the newest releases each year. When Apple fucks their consumers and their consumers still purchase them, other technology companies follow behind because it’s proven success.

When companies fuck you over, don’t continue giving them money to fuck you again. This is easier said than done as it’s more of a societal shift but let’s say everybody holds off, or a good portion hold off and demand that the companies changes things up, then something may be done to get the point across.

This upcoming phone update I’m tempted to buy the fairphone 5 even if theres no upgradable sd slot or headphone jack because it’s not like the google pixel will introduce it. I just hope CalyxOS supports it soon.
