Tim Apple, Nazi collaborator and sympathizer.
The one silver lining about the new US administration is that it has helped undermine some fundamental notions around American exceptionalism.
American oligarchs are not that different from oligarchs in other countries.
I guess a lot of good people will ditch Apple now, right? RIGHT?
I did only a quick search really but couldn’t find if any major android phone manufacturers had stopped advertising on there?
The best option is GrapheneOS on Pixel devices.
If you buy a Pixel, you’re supporting Google which is probably worse.
Maybe a Nothing Phone or a OnePlus?
FOSS alternatives exist for many Android devices. Apple goes to great lengths to block every alternative on all hardware that isn’t mac. I’ve been on iOS since the 3G, but have just purchased an older pixel to start migrating apps and data to GrapheneOS. I wish Pine phone had GOS, but it is what it is.
There is no negotiating with fascists, and Apples #1 market is the US. There is no chance in hell they will defy or deny fascism.
But that’s all changing the subject.
His point was, at least Apple made a stand to begin with. Sure, they didn’t stick to their guns in the end, but if Apple left, while Android manufacturers continued advertising on Xitter this whole time, then isn’t Apple still showing more spine than the others? Does it really make sense to leave Apple for Android over this?
My question is less about the OS than it is the manufacturers paying to advertise on X. Buying from them is supporting X indirectly.
Buy used Pixel or other phone that supports open Android OS, company gets none of your $$.
