Apple being Apple again. Just why does anyone actually like that company?

    OnePlus 10 pro.

    Would never sacrifice the flexibility and customizability of an Android device for the clunky and unintuitive UI of an iPhone.

        You only find Apple’s UI intuitive because you’re used to it.

        I don’t find it intuitive at all. Whenever I’ve used an iPhone, I’ve had to ask for help.

        And I’m a full stack web developer, who contributes to some other software projects in my spare time. I’ve been around computers a fair bit.

        Operating systems these days are complicated. It’s difficult to make them immediately intuitive to a new user. This isn’t a dig at Apple. Any modern, highly featured OS is like this.

      So why fuck Apple? You’re using an Android device, Apple has updated their software in a way that doesn’t compel you to want to try an Apple device, end of story why all the vitriol?

      I could see, maybe, if you were already an Apple user and wanted them to make a change that you want on your device. But having so much hate for a device you have no intention of using anyway?

        This change impacts every mobile user, not just iPhone users. iPhones are a good portion of the userbase of most apps/websites. For PWAs to gain mass adoption, it needs to be available for the majority of users. This change means that will not be the case in the EU.

        PWAs have just been doomed by Apple, and unless Apple reverts this change, they will now never be successful in the EU. And probably not even outside of the EU since non-european products still have european users.
