Apple was worse that Microsoft for some time, because they were actually competent enough to lock users out of their devices. Unfortunately MS has improved their code quality to the point that there’s only one work around for their latest attack on their users. At this rate they might completely defeat their users by windows 13 or 14.

Bare bone functionality and half of the hardware not working. No thanks, keep your apple computers, they are going to be in a landfill soon anyway.

Most of the hardware is supported now. My old HP laptop disintegrated within a few years and became landfill, but my 9 year old Mac is indestructible and runs anything I want. Linux, Windows, macOS. Also repaired it myself (new battery, new left speaker). The latest Macs are built like tanks and will easily last 10+ years.

Your reply seems entirely focused on Apple, when the article is about Windows 11. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whataboutism
Not like Apple is different, they apply the worst user hostile practices they can get way with and then tell you it's for your good. Like you don't even own the computer you bought.
Think of the app store alone, or installing another OS. You can't run any software you want on their machines, you can't even repair them.
