  • It’s perfectly normal and you do it, too. Different people focus on different things. Nobody has the bandwidth to educate themselves about everything.

    Ideally, we would trust people who focus on a topic, aka experts, so we could focus on our own interests. In reality, we just accept the easiest path for things we don’t have the time to focus on—that could be tech, fashion, food, sport, etc.

    The problem is that people with a selfish profit motive have too much control over things that people want.

    “It was probably a bad idea” is all they say about the owner’s donation to a far-right party.

    They can be free speech absolutists if they want. But, if the money I spend goes into the pocket of a man that is going support hate and bigotry, forsaking their business is my way of saying “fuck no” to that.



  • They should, at least, not show ads for Apple One subscribers. This pisses me off.

    Ads in the App Store don’t bother me. Purchasing things is part of it and I rarely use it. But, ads in utilities that I use every day is too far. If they put ads like these in Music, Safari, Mail, etc., they’ll definitely lose even some die-hard Apple users.
