It would appear that people hate criticism of Apple on this platform, based off of the downvotes. I am slightly surprised at that tbh. And I additionally beleive that just makes the point in the video about Apples "holier than thou" mentality more evidently true.

Folks, they are just another Corpo, please stop simping for them because they promised you the world. It's all just sweet nothings and the evidence consistantly shows that.

My guess is the downvotes are for Linus' face.

Or for linking an LTT video. I'm also not a fan, but I'm not going to downvote a relevant post just because I don't like the presenter.

LTT unfortunately has gone the way of easy engagement via ragebait and low hanging fruit. I don't blame them - they have a lot of staff and lovely people to keep employed... but they aren't the scrappy diy because why not guys they were back before Linus media. It was the right business choice ... but a lot of us just can't stomach the change. It's like a good friend gone alcoholic.

DOWNVOTED CUZ I LUV APPLE

2 ads when Linus mentioned candy crush. There is zero flow to youtube anymore

video opens on 2 guys sitting at microphones (ugh) & then the one with the high voice starts screeching about something. closed it immediately.

they mention the F1 movie notifications by Apple, but that’s as far as i got because of the screechy one.

Bad take imo. The Wan Show (the podcast this clip is from) has been around for over 12 years and started back when live video podcasts were hardly a thing, so I feel like it should get at least part of an exception to the "2 guys sitting at microphones" point. Many people in here seem to dislike LTT for some variety of reasons, some valid, some not, but I don't think their podcast existing should be one of them.

I can't really comment on Linus's voice as that is entirely subjective.

The point they were trying to make here is that despite how apple has made many feel, they are still a soulless corporation, no different than any other.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Sure, but the WAN show kinda sucks, it's basically Linus spewing some nonsense and Luke trying to keep him somewhat rational.

It’s often a place for Linus to rant about how he understands business better than his audience.
