The man really should be committed.

to be fair, there aren't many more committed than Ye. And - his PR exploits range from harmless to amusing. And his music is pretty unfailingly great. I like artists.

I’d suspected as such, what with the blatant favouring of subscription-based apps in the App Store (I stupidly started reading the new App Store’s articles when it launched. They always, ALWAYS highlight cool new apps, and forget to mention that this cool new calculator app wants a fucking subscription for it.)

I’m a poor person, but I’m really in to Apple stuff - and if I wasn’t I would have significant lock-in stresses if I wanted to move away (and probably wouldn’t save much in the long run if I did, especially as I don’t upgrade to every new iPhone etc). At least before, it was possible to be a poor Apple customer. But these subscriptions really add up - I find it disgusting that people expect to be constantly remunerated for some bloody currency converter they developed. Argh. Apple you fuck me off these days
