What a silly article.

The Surface is a computer.  Not a great computer, but an actual computer that you can install any software you want on it.

The iPad is a toy, stuck in a walled garden app store.

Exactly, the iPad Pro has awesome  power and performance, that's totally disabled by its extremely cut back OS. End of the day the Microsoft Surface will always be more powerful with ease because it uses a full blown OS able to make full use of the power it has.
Apple for what ever reason seem reluctant to follow suite. Think it's obvious they will never make iPad OS to be the same as Mac OS, which is a shame as the iPad Pro hardware wise is better IMO.

Well with the criticism Mini LED has attracted in the iPad Pro, and some TV's I'm not overly keen for it I must say. OLED or LCD is still king, micro LED is where they need to be but that's a way off yet. 

It was going so well, till they mentioned it’s a subscription service fee! No way is this worth paying 80 dollars or pounds EVERY year for! They’ve seriously miscalculated their market with that.

This sounds like Apple wanted to turn everyone into hypochondriacs using its tech.

It’s a business. Apple can do as it pleases. This typical of all large companies. 

It also says one thing publicly and does another privately. I guess, also typical.

Beta test is nonsense. This is available on the official app. You could use that excuse if labeled it as experimental or limited access to the feature.

Exactly, another example of 'special' treatment Apple has given to certain devs. The feature is not a beta or a pilot as it's been available in the app for a while now, and used by millions. I'm sure the competitors of Zoom would like the same access to the api.
