LOL.  Okay!   

Would it still be as funny if Apple Music had taken the top spot in this study?

Talk about unscientific but ... I do think the deals Spotify has made with various cell-phone providers to offer the service for “free” (hahaha) as part of your smartphone agreement has hurt Apple Music in the eyes of the youth market. I’m not sure if more exclusives will fix that, so I think Apple needs to make more deals with carriers as a way of offering users a choice.

Isn't Apple Music a "free" perk from the #1 provider in the US (Verizon)?

No

But it took the 1st spot in 2018.

Waste of time, guys. These people are blinded by the Apple logo. It’s like a religion to them.

Said better twice, I had AM, hated it, Spotify provides more to my family. To each their own, but spot on with the "religion" aspect. You are right.

"Messenger for macOS." if i dont want this crap on my phone, why the heck do i want this on my MAC? Whats wrong with just using the browser for it anyway if you have too? I am happy someone told me about Friendly for IOS instead of that crap app called Facebook. I have to use the platform and hate that stories could not be hidden. Anyhow just venting. 

Troublesome. Go get professional help. I for one will update all my Facebook apps.

Oh great one, what professional help do you suggest I seek? Oh wise and prudent master?

If the LCD has a chin in addition to a notch, which I assume it will, then I will definetly be getting the 6.5 OLED model. 

Why that assumption? If it includes Face ID, why must there be a chin?

I think i have read elsewhere - The bottom screen area i.e. chin is the place which is used by display (touch-screen) controller.  Mobile phones require a ribbon at the bottom to connect the mobile display to the main board. SO the chin is used to cover this type of connection.

The new Mojave

Apple, in the macOS X era, has avoided OS releases that were treated as laughing-stocks. The odd history of the Mojave name with Microsoft was mostly unremarked upon following Monday's announcement, although a few Twitter wags had jokes ready:

Microsoft, 2006: What if we showed people Windows Vista, but told them it's a new operating system called "Mojave"?
Apple, 2018: What if we showed people macOS High Sierra, but told them it's a new operating system called "Mojave"?

If this coincidence was noticed at all within Apple, it clearly wasn't deemed enough of a problem to not go ahead with the name.

That statement is hilarious! Vista was one of the reasons I switched to Mac and got my first PowerPC MacPro then when they went intel I never touched Vista ever. LOL. However I still found it funny at the time that Vista ran faster on a Mac then any PC at the time...

That was a good bit of nostalgia there.  I like what Mohave has to offer for Apple, but windows 10 for me has been the most stable OS from Microsoft I ever used since windows 3.1 days.
