That's a fucking wild opinion considering some of the high profile shit they've shuttered. Maybe you're just unfamiliar and unempathetic though. So here's a list https://killedbygoogle.com/

Beyond that, all I have to say is that you have fun shutting off your brain and go enjoy being the product because your statement is so fucking blind to reality you're defending a company who literally has lost repeated lawsuits for monopolistic practices because they "don't prevent user choice" and "care about your privacy". Neither of which are remotely fucking true, and you can prove it empirically.

I couldn't possibly disagree with this trainwreck of an opinion more. Apple users are the ones actively turning off their brains as perfectly evidenced here. Google turned off your RSS reader is the best comeback you got.

Apple has been attacked legally for their flagrant anti competitive practices repeatedly, to the point the EU has threatened to ban them from a fucking continent. Google being shitty can never excuse an iota of Apple's anti consumer and anti user behavior. Fuck apple. Could never ever say it enough.

I don't use rss, if you're curious of the actual product they killed that I enjoyed asshole it was Google Play Music, for which ytm is not a viable replacement. That's also another core misunderstanding you have here that I'm defending apple because your rotted fucking mind is so bent on white knighting for your fan boy company that you can't see I'm of the opinion they both fucking suck, just in different ways. As for that empirical evidence here's a list of some:

So, fuck you and your shit ass fanboying. The most annoying part of it is that you're hating on others for the same shit your favorite special little boy "doesn't do". It's as insane as it is inept.

I admitted Google sucks too so this moronic fucking claim that I'm "white knighting" for them leads me to stop reading and throw you a big ol 🖕

Bit ironic because you're 100% simping for apple like a sidepiece

I don't need to post evidence apple doesn't care about you. These comments are on a post that proves it and you'll likely see articles about them losing another lawsuit every week or two that also prove. I know I've seen many of them already.

[–] Ptsf@lemmy.world -1 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

Keep coping that I'm defending apple instead of correcting your incorrect bullshit assumptions. 10/10 great job. Daddy Google has your back. Don't be evil kiddo.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

PS pretty funny you curate a list that you keep handy to prove that Google is evil so you can prove it when absolutely no one denies that whatsoever. If I ever get bored enough I'll make a list like that for apple which would clearly include dozens of lawsuits and other articles exposing their anti consumer behavior.

[–] Ptsf@lemmy.world -1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Very cute you think I keep a list on my bedside instead of being able to... Gasp.. Google search for fucking relevant information I know to exist? Wild.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah I'm sure within 2 minutes you were able to find 10+ totally different articles relating to essentially any company that gets talked about. I must be a moron to not believe that's possible. I bow to you. I am now bested.

[–] Ptsf@lemmy.world 0 points 11 hours ago

Are you not familiar with Gemini? Shits a fucking click away bro.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (1 children)

I can read and so can anyone else who made it this far. Just like everyone else who uses the term "cope" it's just shorthand here for "I'm mad I'm wrong"

[–] Ptsf@lemmy.world 0 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

It'd be pretty fucking wild for your to participate in an internet forum if you couldn't read, but thanks for clearing that up. Pointing out the obvious lends you so much credibility champ! Good job. You're gonna need to keep working on that "reading comprehension" bit though, because you're coping pretty fucking hard and you could at least understand what the world means. Might help you.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Let me spell it out for you, since those dumbed down UIs missing features and basic functionality have rotted your brain away: I meant that since I can read what you wrote, it's clear as day you care only for simping for apple.

[–] Ptsf@lemmy.world 0 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Well. You're fucking wrong. I don't know what to tell you about reality disagreeing with your dumb ass. I'm a ms certified sysadmin that runs linux clusters at home. I don't simp Apple for shit.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

It's been unpleasant, I'm out. Fuck Google. Fuck apple 100x harder. Not interested in you playing pretend.

[–] Ptsf@lemmy.world 0 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Get out. Enjoy the copeium. Go outside. Touch some fucking grass. You need to get closer to reality because apparently you can't fucking see it.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

All trite comments usually made by people who unirononically need the condescending advice

[–] Ptsf@lemmy.world 0 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

All the constant "I'm done" fakery bullshit for the lads that constantly want the last word. ;) Go get you some grass big guy.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Lol whatever you need to believe

[–] Ptsf@lemmy.world 0 points 9 hours ago

👌 came back, didn't ya? Seems like my belief is getting some evidence.
