I wear a Garmin. They should really let me specify any device. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Important_Cow7230@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago This is a very Apple move, prioritise Apple device sales over customer freedom, choice and enjoyment.

It just so happens that they're the only company that is authorized to use those chips, so it's a very wink-and-a-nod excuse at best. permalink fedilink source parent
