Article for context:https://www.theverge.com/2023/9/12/23870522/iphone-15-pro-max-thread-smartphones (Ik that I am talking about multiple companies when I refer to android companies but many singular companies make more innovations in the phone space compared to apple)
It literally started with a question.
As yet noone has even answered that question.
Why is it worse? You’ve gone to the trouble to downvote, and reply, yet still haven’t answered the question.
Tbh most partisan camp debates in technology are pretty tiresome: ios vs android, playstation vs xbox. They all have pros and cons.
(Even linux and windows both have their pros and cons.)
That said, there’s a huge difference between comparing two commercial products both from competing companies vs a powerful open source tool, with almost limitless potential. Virtually ANY complaint you have about linux CAN be fixed by the public, even YOU if you put in the appropriate effort/resources.
The fact that you can freely boot into modern hardware with something offering that kind of power & freedom openly to the public is frankly incredible.
So tbh it’s pretty difficult to see why it is worse.
You’ve answered the question yourself. It’s just tiresome. It’s so exhausting to see time and time again. It’s not like it makes it not tiresome just because it’s punching up to criticize Microsoft. It’s a subjective thing, clearly some people don’t think it is tiresome so they continue to gripe about it.
the problem is, that it keeps getting worse and more (in/per)vasive. when new items are added to the list, do you really expect its unreasonable that people are going to discuss the new & continued revelations?
I don’t think this conversation has ever been about it being unreasonable for people to talk about, but no, I don’t find it unreasonable. Like I said, I just find the framing of it being about a power differential to be irrelevant for folks finding the topic to be annoying to read about.
the discussion was actually about it being “more annoying”. (for which we’re still yet to have an answer to btw)
unable to defend that, next it was about it being “just tiresome” (not “more annoying”).
now its “the framing of it being about a power differential to be irrelevant” (not “just tiresome”, or “more annoying” either?).
so the complaint changes, but the one constant is that you just happen to still be right each time (yet can’t provide a consistent reason why).
in other words, as stated from the outset, no coherent or consistent arguments. just mindless downvoting.
honestly, it’s disappointing.
I was and am explaining to you why I down voted your comment. You asked someone who made a very subjective claim about their personal taste to justify their decision and part of your reasoning that they shouldn’t have that subjective opinion was that there’s a power differential between Linux and Microsoft. Just because that is true doesn’t invalidate their opinion about what is annoying to them. It’s like saying “how can you think red is the best color when it’s the color of blood?” It doesn’t matter.
