I guess the flip side of this is that you look like a fucking dork.

99% of Apple users are not thinking about how much better they are than other people for buying the phone or computer they did. They just bought it because it's the obvious choice and they've had good experiences with it in the past.
Every time an anti-Apple zealout busts out the spec sheets to prove why alternatives are so much better, there's about 8000 gotchas and usability issues that aren't worth the tradeoff for most people. You're free to not think the tradeoffs of Apple devices are worth it for you, but for everyone else (most people) they make the best option that puts up the minimal amount of fighting and a handful of workflows that you simply can't recreate in other ecosystems without dozens of asterisks.
You must not spend any time around teenagers. Teenagers absolutely judge people for not having iPhones.

This is backwards.
My mentees (and on the other end of the age scale, my in-laws) are always shocked that I can do something on my Android in seconds that takes them minutes on an iPhone...assuming they can even do it on their iPhones at all.
an (imaginary) Apple zealot?
> of Apple zealots telling you’re wrong for choosing something else and bragging that their choice is somehow superior
Except that hardly ever happens. Unlike the opposite [as we are witnessing in this very thread].
Why are you so obsessed with Apple, though? Seems pretty weird. I mean even weirder than being an actual "Apple zealot"..
