In general, the anti-apple cult is much stronger than the supposed pro-apple cult. I haven't seen people really give that much of a fuck about apple positively in years but if you prefer an iphone, some people insist you're obsessed with them.
on this site at least - you're absolutely right, and the fact that you're getting bombed with downvotes is pretty solid anecdotal evidence of that if nothing else lol
Don't get me wrong, I get just as annoyed by those who insist Apple can do no wrong as those who insist they can do no right. I just find it weird how pseudo-religious people can get about Apple. It seems like you're not allowed to just view them as another tech company. You have to either crusade against them, or else you're a paid apple shill
I'm on kbin so downvotes from other instances (??)... they don't even show up.
Ooo that's a nice feature lol - how's kbin these days? I checked it out at the beginning but went with Lemmy - have they added hashtag following to the microblogging portion? And is there a good app?
It's been pretty steady. I've alternated between kbin and lemmy for a while. I generally only use the web interfaces... I don't think the kbin app is ready for release yet. Overall I like the interface more than the default Lemmy, though it has some strange aspects also. It doesn't seem there's a way to follow hashtags. Overall I find the microblog interface somewhat confusing (I can't even tell what the up arrow does).
