I truly truly wish you the best of luck in your futile endeavor.

My wife HATES all her apple products but still won't switch. Similarly, while I love Macbooks, iPhones make me sick and developing for them is like Apple personally giving you (the dev) the middle finger every time there's an update.

I don't know the solution. Wish I did. Wish the internet was as free and wild as it used to be. But you could have a foghorn go off on an iphone every 3 seconds and people still wouldn't switch.

I know this article is about google but I only had a good Apple anecdote so there you are.

Can you explain where this wierd wish to talk about Apple in unrelated articles comes from? There's always one of you around that need to run an apple pitch in every topic where it's not needed or desired.

it's not quite unrelated, he clearly wants to get away from apple but can't tell us what it takes to do so.

he is subconsciously hoping that /e/os will fill that need some day.
