Comment on apple users in a nutshell
michaelmrose@lemmy.world 6 months agoI think the problems include the fact that an actual apple computer starts at 1000 and going higher than 8GB of RAM and 256G of storage costs you another 1000 because hardware isn’t really modular and storage and ram are a huge tool of market segmentation.
Meanwhile a traditional desktop starts at $7000.
It’s like they have lifted everything but the absolutely cheapest market segments out of reach of virtually any normal folks.

These are the things i look at when reviewers talk about apple “taking gaming serious now” and im just like what.

As someone who does animation, apple has been terrible for work. Because they take forever to render CGI, compared to my personal gaming computer. Same thing with simple video editing. Having a powerful GPU is pretty nice for work. And because apple is overpriced. I’ve found gaming rigs that are cheaper and do a better job, on top of being more intuitive. Seriously I can’t do anything without the windows search bar. It’s really nice being able to just type in the settings I want to change. And have the OS take me directly there.
