1 year agoI think Apple is as bad as Microsoft or even worse. Their products are not even remotely as good as their fans claim to be either.
I had to use a macbook for work once and it honestly sucked and I really tried to like it even contributed to major user space programs through out my 2 year adventure. It’s a bad platform of blind leading the blind.
The platform is full of abandonware and legacy cruft I seriously don’t understand how people are OK with that. Like, dragging shit to a folder to install it. It’s 2023. Nobody knows how internal directory structure works and everything is all over the place. There’s a thousand ways to do one thing and all of them are bad.
The apple developer forums are extremely cringe filled with, again, blind leading the blind and worse as you pointed out is that it leaks outside of Apple, especially now with ChatGPT!
