Is anyone actually claiming that Apple are going out of business? This kind of reflexive defensiveness doesn't really help anything.

Um, excuse me, don't you realize that Android has been installed on approximately 8 million times the number of devices that iOS has been installed on? Think of how many feature phones, Arduinos, and toasters have all of the same capabilities Apple's iterative, piddly phone offering. Probably more features, now that I think about it, since, like, I don't have to jailbreak my toaster to get all of the features I want.

Mocking Android fanboys in a forum overwhelmingly dominated by Apple adulation? I hate to use a Reddit/4chan meme, but so brave...

Funny, I thought HN was dominated by Android fanboys. Perception is everything eh?

Quote from almost a decade ago by a Linux fangirl - "I love MS products, but I cannot stand their policies"

My perception is that here the situation is similar.
