I remember as a PC guy how I bought my first Apple device, a MacBook Pro, in 2013

I bought it because that's what my brother had (a pro VFX guy) and also a lot of people in startups around then switched to MacBooks

Back then Windows had become such a POS to use

I'm starting to feel we're reaching a similar moment with Apple

I just saw @dhh's Omarchy's foundation announcement and this video by @theo is also accurate

Apple has given a consistent big F U to developers for over a decade, but at least their software worked well enough. The last few years that changed and you start seeing really dumb and messy bugs everywhere especially in iOS but also MacOS

As an example every time I open my camera from my iPhone's homescreen to quickly picture somethig that quickly happened (like a plane flying by slow) I miss it because my Camera app goes into a weird blur freeze or just stays black

Just basic software things Apple can't even do anymore

A big reason for this of course, may I say it, is Steve not being there. Steve was obsessed about details. Modern Apple doesn't care about details at all

Developers are just a tiny sliver of society but they are trend setting and if you lose them, there's a good chance the rest of people will move on to other platforms too

Apple should be studying what's happening now because add this to also investing $0 into AI (which people call a "great move" as models go open, I'm really not sure about that) they might not have a moat left

I know for sure if I switch from a MacBook Pro running MacOS to a Dell XPS with Linux that will be a gateway drug for me to also move my iPhone with iOS to some great hardware phone running a great custom minimal Android install

And I never even considered switching before this year!

@dernhelm7 @bananamelter How did it feel? Smoking salvia always felt too intense, but it always had an interesting side to it that felt worth exploring in a smoother way
