Who makes a statement like that about Apple products and expects to be taken seriously?

Your point is fair. (I'm not the one who made that statement you quoted, though I'm further upthread.)

Your parent poster is a moderator here. Hacker News has one of the best places on the planet and it's amazing that it's been maintained, through the very hard work of the moderators. As you're a new user, the moderator pointed out the style conventions here.

I personally think that often the knee-jerk reaction is a fine starting point. We get exactly what you meant by:

   > Hobbyists can always run their own custom mobile OS version.
   HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA

Next this should be edited to this form:

   > Hobbyists can always run their own custom mobile OS version.
   Surely even you do not seriously believe this.

And suddenly we have a substantive discussion. (I assume this is what you meant.) Welcome to Hacker News.

What exactly is your concern about the statement?

If you want to tune every desired aspect of your OS, go install an open source mobile OS (there are a few) or LineageOS or something.

iOS is opinionated and has always been.
