Once upon a time, Apple used to be different. Now they’re just another megacorp that abuses you with enshittification, like they all do.

Different indeed, like that time Jobs pushed U2 album into every iphone.
Steve Jobs died in 2011, that "Songs of Innocence" fiasco was in 2014.
You are right, I misremembered U2 branded iPod as that song debacle.
Not really. 15 years ago it was "you're holding it wrong" and 50 years ago it was Steve Jobs swindling Woz to close Atari contracts.
"Apple used to mean something" is a postmodern catechism to make you feel better when Apple reveals themselves as a federally-backdoored shoggoth.
