A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

the fact that they make hardware that is beloved by many of the computer illiterate is unimportant

Painting Apple users as "computer illiterate" makes me think you don't really have a good understanding of their entire customer base. Macs have been very popular with SWE's, for close to 20 years now.
