Sells outdated/old tech at a premium:

- Up until a few years ago, 2019, Apple was STILL still selling iMacs with 5400 rpm drives in them! Ridiculous! 

- Constantly behind on graphics cards
-  Uses slower RAM 
-  Up until two years ago, (2020) max WiFi speed was 802.11a/c. WiFi a/x wifi 6 not supported!

Security/privacy 
- Plenty of virus malware in the Apple Appstore. 

- Plenty of zero day vulnerabilities still exist.

Often the reason there are so many software updates. Yet there are so many security holes in the Apple platform, often these updates lag incredibly behind. Do it right the first time is what comes to mind. 

- Apple sells/shares your data with partners
Read the ULA’s. 
Apple’s policy of telling you about all advantages, but not disclosing what’s missing is plain rotten. 

- Adverts in payed subs. 

- Often, updates remove features and apps  Network utility has been shelved. AppleScript is defunct. Safari support online is waning. Apple forces need for new hardware just to have the most up to date functioning software. (Forced obsolescence)  while other third party software like Firefox works perfectly fine on a much wider range of Macs. 
 

Quality of software down. 

- lots of software bugs and instability. Turning devices and settings off/on, signing out of iCloud etc to “fix” glitches is ridiculous and all too common. If all of you know that these are known fixes, shouldn’t Apple ? Apple needs to properly address this. 

 

Apple needs a leader/leadership who actually uses the products. They need to do better.
