It would appear that people hate criticism of Apple on this platform, based off of the downvotes. I am slightly surprised at that tbh. And I additionally beleive that just makes the point in the video about Apples “holier than thou” mentality more evidently true.
Folks, they are just another Corpo, please stop simping for them because they promised you the world. It’s all just sweet nothings and the evidence consistantly shows that.
My guess is the downvotes are for Linus’ face.
Or for linking an LTT video. I’m also not a fan, but I’m not going to downvote a relevant post just because I don’t like the presenter.
Oh ok, if that’s what it was actually about, I get disliking the format/channel. But I completely agree with you about not downvoting a relevant post.
LTT unfortunately has gone the way of easy engagement via ragebait and low hanging fruit. I don’t blame them - they have a lot of staff and lovely people to keep employed… but they aren’t the scrappy diy because why not guys they were back before Linus media. It was the right business choice … but a lot of us just can’t stomach the change. It’s like a good friend gone alcoholic.
Downvoting for two reasons:
Apple Just Proved
No they didn’t.
They’re No Different Than Google
Duh ofc. No proof needed or possible.
What? Random positive or neutral news gets vote bombed on Apple communities too.
Lemmy is weird. It’s not uncommon to see relevant posts downvoted in a variety of communities.
Here’s one about Edge getting faster from today. It feels like at the worst, it should sit at zero upvotes.
Maybe it’s the video format, presenter, or the fact that nobody ever thought one is better than the other so it’s not even interesting info.
DOWNVOTED CUZ I LUV APPLE
2 ads when Linus mentioned candy crush. There is zero flow to youtube anymore
I didn’t know Lemmy had so many Apple fans.
