    I remember I told one of the asahi devs (lina?) How shitty apple is and how they try to make it as hard as possible for them to make a linux that runs on apple computers. they got triggered, told me this is not the case and apple is very cooperative, then blocked me on mastodon.

    guess they like the arrangement.

      This sounds like you were harassing a volunteer dev that had an actual direct interaction with a corporation based on hearsay and they rightfully blocked a troll that wasn’t contributing anything meaningful or constructive to the project.

      I used to work for an apple reseller.

      Apple devs were fairly normal people and were totally honest with us during developer training. I would happily have a beer with them

      Some Apple sales managers were absolute cocks though. One of them treated me like an idiot one week in front of customers when I defended windows on Mac, and the next week, he was talking like he was a genius and repeated every argument I made the week before.

      Apple talks lots of s*** about Linux. Absolutely don’t buy an Apple if you want a Linux system. The Asahi devs deserve a lot of respect though

      Only people who like apple (I was going to say fanboys here but I restrained myself) would contribute to posting Linux to Mac, so it logically follows that they wouldn’t like their preferred platform to be criticised.
