That's not even accurate. You really need to get a grip, or at least learn what makes a desktop environment separate from the OS in unix-based OSs.

It wasn't an insult, I was being exceptionally indulgent by telling you where you went wrong in horrifically missing my point instead of issuing well-deserved insults: you weren't paying attention to what I was actually saying. I'm not surprised you stopped reading there though, people like you always plug their ears when they think they're at risk of being proven wrong. You have a bright future in the senior leadership of the GOP if you ever want to take it.

You need to sharpen your reading comprehension skills, I don't have any problem with Apple and their products are fine. The 1st and 2nd get iPhones were less functional than the devices they purported to supplant by a wide margin, and the 3GS was the first actually good device they made. That's all right there in the text, you just have to look with your eyeballs and put the words through the critical thinking part of your brain instead of the emotional reaction part. Even in 2007 it was laughable that you couldn't connect to WiFi with a purported smart device. Its feature base sucked ass till the 3GS, and now they're fine; the only reason I don't use an iPhone is because I prefer auditable FOSS, hence I use an Android device with an AOSP-based ROM and no Gplay Services. If it wasn't for that, the iPhone would be a fine alternative.

On this day in 2007 smartphones took a nosedive in functionality that they took years to recover from. The first iPhone was especially bad, by modern standards it wasn't even a smartphone, it was a feature phone with a touchscreen. I had a Nokia E70 in 2007, a time when the culture around using Apple products was even more elitist than it is today, and it was beyond annoying to be told shit like "well you don't really need to be able to copy and paste text, or record video, or record voice notes, or install third-party apps, that's all just bloat" by brand loyalists who really needed me to know why my phone was actually worse than an iPhone for being able to do those things. If we're going to celebrate the iPhone for innovating and being a decent product, I agree, but that didn't happen till the 3GS came out.

And yet it's the only argument you'll hear. I don't know what possesses some people to act like critcism of systemd makes you an entitled manchild, I suspect they might be imbeciles.

Half the reason I left reddit was in hopes of never seeing that horribly ugly snoo logo ever again

lemmy.blahaj.zone unfortunately federates with lemmygrad.ml, which is a forum that puts gleeful support for the soviet union and the CCP above all other concerns, and accuses you of being brainwashed by the CIA if you take exception to Stalin executing gays. Beehaw.org is kind of a hugbox but they have many openly queer admins/mods and a dedicated LGBT+ community.
