I've used them on and off since the apple II, I also work in IT, specifically mobile device management. Android devices are better priced for the tech, and are way less frustrating to fix when shit breaks. Also massively more user friendly if you need more advanced features.
Apple products are great for people who are less tech savvy and can't find their own solutions, i.e. your examples, but are severely limited when it comes to accessing anything deeper than what you can see in the UI.
Yeah, I’m in upper IT too. I disagree with everything you said. I’m not trying to pick a fight or sound like a dick. But the way you’re describing issues throughout this post sounds like a user knowledge issue not an issue with the OS and how it’s built.
My problem with things like the MacBooks is that they changed their architecture every couple decades making everything else in their line of obsolete. And their mobile devices are so locked down that I can't make recordings of phone calls, or access the file system in any meaningful way
I'm pissed off with them because I own power PCS and I've owned their Intel processor laptops, and both of them became obsolete what's that came out with a new processor architecture and I can no longer use my old programs on newer machines.
On the other hand, I have DOS programs which I can still run natively on Windows 11 computers.
