“Abusive tech partner”
It’s hard to take anyone seriously when they talk like this.
Did they beat you and threaten you if you left? No. You knew what you were getting into when you bought it and it seems you got out without any scars. And in fact you admit to willing using their OS now in a VM… I guess you still love them a little bit.
Bricking tech to force users to buy new tech.
Slowing older model phones intentionally.
Banning/censoring apps.
And now this.

It’s hard to “take anyone seriously” who is so blind they cannot see that Apple has been abusing their position for years now.

Sheesh… are you sure you’re in the right forum if you really have to ask this question?

Who gives 2 shits about Apple anyway? If you don’t like them then don’t use them , if you like them then use them. I thought this was a Linux phone forum. Screw Apple

Apple is a dead man walking. Any hope Apple had of redeeming themselves or innovating anything new of significance died with Steve Jobs.
But while the last vestiges of their monopoly dies, we still have to access old docs locked in Apple’s proprietary software formats.
Never again will I make that mistake on any new docs moving forward.
No closed source file formats, period!

Could be worse, it could be a “co-dependent” tech partner!
