I think a lot of the ios lemmy users are actually early stage converts. Some know, some dont. Since a large portion of lemmy (and especially the linux community) is made up of anti social trolls, these converts to be might never actually hop over since they think they‘re stupid and unworthy for the „god-OS“ that only „the truly enlightened understand“.
Obviously this is mostly cynical bitterness speaking from the really bad interactions I had with people who dont know shit about computers but like to lord their tiny and specific knowledge advantage over others to bolster their egos from their moms basement.
That said, apple has decent hardware and the fact that we havent broken their asshole bootloaders so we can actually root their devices properly shows that they’re not that stupid. But no, you should not use apple (or stock android I guess) if you have the tech knowledge and funds to switch.
Disclaimer: this is just my opinion. I‘m fine with disagreement. Trolls will be blocked immediately.
