They mean phones and Macs now both run ARM chips... Doesn't mean same apps of course.

Actually the part about the same apps is true https://www.macrumors.com/how-to/install-any-ios-app-m1-mac/
The problematic part of that quote is where it claims that iPhones and iPads used to have Intel processors.

Really makes you wonder what other statements there are outright false. Prior to Apple's own ARM chips iPhones used Samsung processors.
Interestingly though, Intel did at once point make very nice mobile CPUs (notably the XScale PXA270, which clocked in at a little over 500 MHz and had a halfway decent PowerVR graphics accelerator).

I mean, this is coming from Bloomberg. Y'know, the outlet that still hasn't retracted, apologized for, or in any way acknowledge the fact that their "Big Hack" story was a giant steaming heap of bullshit.

But it's not. macOS allows you to run iOS apps, not vice-versa.

My iPhone7+ had an Intel baseband chip.
Say what now?
