> Apple has lost its way, just look at how the "normies" and the "neckbeards" responded to the Vision Pro.

Such people are likely confused. The AVP makes sense as a high end POC and dev kit. It takes a minute for a new modality of computing to make sense to people, even for Apple's own devs to figure out how people can use it, to iterate the OS and default app suite for a few years.

you’re suggesting apple planned to sell a $3.5k headset to normies? That doesn’t make sense. Sure, many normies had an opinion on it. Most normies never tried it so i don’t care what they think. It’s like asking a normie 20 years ago about what driving an electric car is like.

Vision pro was an over-hyped dev kit that offers a taste of the future. That’s it.

They have classes full of "normies" trying them out every time I pass by my local store. Sure looks like its meant to be something other than a dev kit to me.
