A deliberate attempt to spin something totally normal as if it was evil. People who care about the products they develop will protect their work. Why would Apple port something they perceive as valuable to a competitor’s product if it won’t help th…

SoundJudgment said: Just wait. You know the Luddites are going to scream and cry "Hack! Fraud!", as is their want, to prevent this from moving forward. And we will all be stuck back in the 20th Century for the next 200 years. Yes it’s so …

Uh ... the author of the article needs to buy a macOS computer. People trying to transform the iPad into what they consider a ‘proper’ computer are expressing their lack of understanding of the iPad’s actual benefit. When the iPad first came out I…

A solution in search of a problem. Apart from a tiny minority of extremists, who out there was really suffering in emotional pain because they weren’t given the option to choose to not have a female voice by default while hypocritically not wanting …

Discrimination happens all of the time and for an infinite number of reasons. It’s just the ‘woke’ crowd that wants to pretend it’s only against women, or black people, etc. In reality, we discriminate against others in varying degrees every day—bec…

flydog said: For many apps, the business model of selling an app for a one time fee, then supporting that customer forever is unsustainable. The assumption you have here is that the developer deserves to stay in business ‘forever’. Of course …

Just another action taken to appear ‘woke’. Supported by old people who want to feel relevant—instead of sharing their actual wisdom with the youth they exchange it to feel like they aren’t old.

CloudTalkin said: I think IAP is arguably the primary reason for the success of the App Store, especially from Apple's financial perspective. Without it, I think it's fair to say the revenue that Apple enjoys from the App Store wouldn't be as…

Unsurprising, but also surprising. 5G isn’t even of particular significance right now. I keep 5G off on my iPhone 12 Pro to save battery because there is currently no gain from using 5G. I know technologies are developed well before they become use…

Of course Apple did well. Many big companies did fine during lockdowns as where many small businesses closed, thanks to nonsensical lockdown mandates.

If the screen doesn’t feel as nice as glass then I think it’ll be a mistake. A substandard-feeling product as a ‘new hot item’ from Apple would be a sign Apple is lost.

With Zuckerberg spending hundreds of millions to influence the presidential election, it’s obvious he’s seeing himself as someone with an opinion so important that it should be forced on others with all of his monetary might. I really wish celebrit…

Doesn’t everyone know that Facebook is entitled to harvest user data that doesn’t belong to them? It’s for the users’ benefit of course. Just like censoring content is for the users’ benefit. Facebook is like a god and should be worshipped and obeye…

OutdoorAppDeveloper said: Will we be able to uninstall the AppStore app and install one of our own choosing? Why would you want to? Just because of ‘principle’? Whether you agree with it or not, Apple’s way of doing things makes some sacri…
