Boycott Apple. Like they got you, they've tricked you into using whatever hardware of theirs you own....but that doesn't mean you have to buy Apple next time.
Anything android that has lineage or similar community support. It's not the same but you won't have your balls getting squeezed by apple
I’ve been using Apple for seven-eight years. I left android because of poor update support from the major manufacturers. I don’t want to go back to android because Google has moved to being primarily an advertising company. Any suggestions for an alternative?
GrapheneOS is really solid. You can use a Google Pixel with absolutely no Google spy shit on it and still have a great experience just by slapping GrapheneOS on it.
I went from shoulder-deep in Apple's walled rectum to 100% Apple free and GrapheneOS on a Pixel 5 was the first step I took. Haven't lpoked back at all.
my dad is 64.
last week when i spoke to him, he told me he broke the screen on his iPhone. he told me that he called a fixit place and they wanted $100 for the repair
man that he is, he went on eBay and bought a screen repair kit and did it himself
That's a Swanson move right there. My ovaries can't take this amount of manhood!
The watch is made in a highly automated environment with super cheap labor. The repair is done by somebody earning a multitude of that labor. Not condoning this in the slightest, but I can understand the economics behind it.
The economics behind it is that if they can make you buy a new one, they make more money than if you repair it.
Everyone who still buys apple products just wants to be bent over at this point....
Oh my god shut up. Every major company does this.

Whether it be electronics, automobiles or medical equipment, the manufacturers should not be able to horde “oem” parts, render your stuff useless if you repair it with aftermarket parts, or hide schematics of their products.
