>I don’t know if Apple has the DNA for web-scale consumer social software compared to Meta.

Yeah, they don’t. I’ve been using their cloud stuff since iTools and they’ve always been pure crap. Apple just doesn’t “get” the whole website thing for whatever reason lol

Apple's division in charge for these services is notoriously dysfunctional, multiple Apple employees have warned against joining it on Blind.

Dysfunctional orgs produce dysfunctional outputs.

Apple doesn’t need to ‘get websites’ for this though? It seems like it can entirely bypass DNS and most of the other web paradigms that facebook et al have popularized.
