What DID Apple innovate? (lemmy.world)

Genuine question.

I know they were the scrappy startup doing different cool things. But, what are the most major innovative things that they introduced, improved or just implemented that either revolutionized, improved or spurred change?

I am aware of the possibility of both fanboys and haters just duking it out below. But there's always that one guy who has a fkn well-formatted paragraph of gold. I await that guy.

So you're strawmanning me, basically. I said they created a market. I said that because it's true. I never said a damn thing about how they created the market, in fact I went to great lengths to point out that all of these devices existed before apple created theirs. You're so desperate to rant about fanboys that you inserted opinions into my post that weren't there.

Here's the deal, bro. Fanboys and haters are equally annoying. I can't imagine how empty your life must be to have such strong opinions about a fucking phone.

Firstly, I'm not desperate and I didn't mention fanboys anywhere, so you made up that. My comment wasn't even a rant.

And I didn't insert any opinion. You said Apple created the market, that before the MP3 nobody wanted a mp3.

What are you talking about? It was my first response to you. And I didn't even show strong opinion, just said that Apple's financial success was due to marketing and brand recognition, not innovation. That's not an strong opinion, nor hating. It is not even talking bad about Apple.

Lastly, I kept myself on topic while you made personal attacks against me and my "empty" life. Who's the one with the strong opinion here, huh?
