Excuse me. As an Apple fanboy, I’ve seen that both Apple fanboys and Apple haters are as worse as each other on average. Don’t fall prey to enemy mentality and think in absolutes from the worst examples you’ve seen.
No Windows user cheers for Microsoft when they publish record revenue figures. They know, they paid for it.
No Android user defends phone makers if the new model has nothing new but costs 10-20% more.
But there isn’t a thread or article about Apple without some commenters defending them. Regardless of the shit they pull.
Kinda like how the kind of people that buy a Rolex because it’s expensive will scoff at Seiko owners. On the other hand, the kind of people that buy Rolex because they admire its mechanical movements is probably own a Seiko as well.
I’ve never seen anybody cheer for Apple revenue figures. It’s just a bunch of boring numbers that always go up, unless the company is brave enough to stand against investors. I’ve seen plenty of people defend Samsung for what they do, and in China I’ve seen the most obnoxious Huawei fanboys. Both of these companies have on average the same amount of new features each year as Apple does, and none of them persistently increases the price; the new model costs more now because they’ve cut last year’s models’ prices. To say that DadeMurphy is representative of most Apple fans is certainly an exaggeration.
E.g. when Microsoft was buying Bethesda and Activision, threads were full of people saying it was great, and those who said otherwise got a lot of hate for it.
I’ve seen people fanboying over Windows too
We see it with Tesla
We see it with Nvidia
Apple is the posterboy of megacorps that people simp for, but they are far from the only one
I think that was equal part MSFT simping and Bethesda/Activision hate. Bethesda hasn’t chosen to release anything comparable to Skyrim since 2011, and Activision is just a shitshow all around, especially with Blizzard. Market consolidation is never good, but when EA bought Westwood, I felt that something of value has been lost. Not the case with these acquisitions.
He’s just a troll, or a shill. Don’t give him attention or he will feel important
That’s what actual Apple fanbois sound like though. I believe it’s a specific case of Stockholm Syndrome.

I haven’t seen this for any other corp though.

I absolutely do see people simp for Microsoft
