Apple Just Proved They're No Different Than Google

  It would appear that people hate criticism of Apple on this platform, based off of the downvotes. I am slightly surprised at that tbh. And I additionally beleive that just makes the point in the video about Apples “holier than thou” mentality more evidently true.

    My guess is the downvotes are for Linus’ face.

      Or for linking an LTT video. I’m also not a fan.

      LTT unfortunately has gone the way of easy engagement via ragebait and low hanging fruit. I don’t blame them - they have a lot of staff and lovely people to keep employed… but they aren’t the scrappy diy because why not guys they were back before Linus media. It was the right business choice … but a lot of us just can’t stomach the change. It’s like a good friend gone alcoholic.

    Downvoting for two reasons:

    Apple Just Proved

    No they didn’t.

    They’re No Different Than Google

    Duh ofc.

    What? Random positive or neutral news gets vote bombed on Apple communities too.

    Lemmy is weird.

      I would say the majority of Lemmy users are more tech savvy than the general population.

      Techy people in general dislike Edge, because of a few reasons, (embedded browser, Microsoft affiliation, their injection of ads while looking at other browsers, ect)

      A post that praises Edge in the title, true or not, reads as AstroTurfing from a major corporation for a product most Lemmy users don’t like.

      It’s just the wrong audience, even if the post is true and relevant.

    Maybe it’s the video format, presenter, or the fact that nobody ever thought one is better than the other so it’s not even interesting info.

  video opens on 2 guys sitting at microphones (ugh) & then the one with the high voice starts screeching about something. closed it immediately.

  they mention the F1 movie notifications by Apple, but that’s as far as i got because of the screechy one.

    Bad take imo. The Wan Show (the podcast this clip is from) has been around for over 12 years and started back when live video podcasts were hardly a thing, so I feel like it should get at least part of an exception to the “2 guys sitting at microphones” point. Many people in here seem to dislike LTT for some variety of reasons, some valid, some not, but I don’t think their podcast existing should be one of them. I can’t really comment on Linus’s voice as that is entirely subjective. The point they were trying to make here is that despite how apple has made many feel, they are still a soulless corporation, no different than any other.

      Sure, but the WAN show kinda sucks, it’s basically Linus spewing some nonsense and Luke trying to keep him somewhat rational.
