Comment on Those who are against iOS and Apple in general, have you tried their devices lately?

If you like Apple and Mac, go ahead, use whatever you like. I think the hate comes from the hype attitude apple users typically have. They are a bit too hardcore about it and it gets annoying. I know, some bad apples spoil the lot (pun?) and I’m sure there’s Apple lovers who don’t go around preaching or trying to convert anyone. My sister loves her iPhone, yet I never heard her recommend me get one, or even brag about it.

Now you will have to understand different people value different things. For me, if you can’t sideload apps, if it’s too hard to jailbreak, if it’s too expensive, if I can’t run the niche software I need to run- I’m not going to bother. For these reasons I’m not an apple customer.

Finally, no, no haven’t used any Apple products lately. I think the last time I did was a Mac at uni some 5 years ago, and I’ve always found the interface counterintuitive. The mouse design is very uncomfortable. I don’t like their keyboards. Perhaps these things changed or maybe we have compatibility, but again, adding to the reasons in paragraph 2- I don’t see why I should bother.
