I love that this community calls out Apple’s BS.
-
I mean, all the Apple communities are shitting on this. Go look at the comment threads on the article and other Mac enthusiast blogs.
-
Well, not the ultimate Apple circlejerk, r/apple.
-
That’s more a reflection of the mods. The mods are locking and or deleting Apple - Trump posts. Try posting and see for yourself.
-
Oh yes I've seen it millions of times over the last 15 years.
-
Yeah, the mods of that sub are pretty bad. They remove everything, even mundane stuff that all other Apple communities report on. They often remove posts that are not in violation of the established community rules.
-
It rubs off on the users too. Anything not absolutely fellating Tim Apple is downvoted to oblivion.
-
I generally find that community basically downvotes almost everything. They’d downvote a picture of their own mom because they already know what she looks like. Getting any story out of /new is hard in that place. There are a lot of angry people there.

I was looking at it and people were downvoting comments criticizing criminals. Wtf...

This is normal on reddit. Want to get banned? Ask a mod what rule you broke. They won't even reply.

I honestly think that the mods of that subreddit are employees. r/lego is another one where I think that the mod team is all owned by the company

One thing that I do like about Lemmy is even the Apple community is somewhat critical. While this particular case seems to be more of an exception, you'll get massively downvotes if you critique the standard PR narrative that "Apple cares about digital privacy" or point out how Apple removed content critical of China and AI tech from their streaming service.

The reddit apple sub claims it isn't affiliated with apple corp. cough
-
Most apple forems are full of “line must go up” APPL share holders, and will down vote/dislike anything negative aimed at apple.

It’s a personal donation from Tim Cook
-
Tim Cook is Apple's CEO and is very transparently doing this with the goal of getting favorable treatment toward Apple by the Trump administration. You'd have to be deluded to think this "personal donation" isn't a bribe on behalf of Apple.
