For me, nothing could ever possibly top Apple’s rejection of strain relievers on their cables. It’s absolutely the perfect blend of their overrated design sense with their unerring corporate instinct for planned obsolescence.

Sata cables? There aren’t sata cables in MacBooks and haven’t been for like a decade.

“iPad had USB-C”
Any argument they make for iPads having USB-C is moot because they are still selling Lightning iPads.

In my opinion, Apple’s choice to reduce the number and variety of ports on their devices in order to sell more dongles was where mobile device enshitification began in earnest. Now my phone just spys on me and vomits ads constantly and I can’t even plug in my fucking headphones.
They take ages to adopt great features that have existed on Android devices for years, and yet are THE leader of what corners to cut in the industry.
Actually, Apple supports the right to repair law now: https://www.theverge.com/2023/8/23/23843506/apple-california-right-to-repair-sb-244
Like any populist leader, they have just seen which way the crowd is moving, ran to the front and pretended that’s what they were going to do all along.
I want to say that people like you falling for this is mind blowing, but it actually just seems to be a rather depressing part of human nature. I’ll never understand why people show such loyalty to a company that only cares about how much money they can extract from your pockets.
They saw the the writing on the wall, and turned colours as soon as they saw they were fighiting a loosing battle.
Ye no, i will only say they support it the moment their devices isnt made to not be repaired and have dark patterns all over them
Only when they can find a way to make money from it.
