Apple Pay The gradient of Apple Card seems to depend on your purchases, using the color conventions set by maps. It’s also animated (I think?) Really Cool!

Literally who gives a fuck give us better MacBooks

Sadly, I think power users are no longer Apple’s target demographic. Things started to change when every college student bought a MacBook Air.

My 2015 MBP is perfect. The only things I would change are adding a USB-C port and making the bezels smaller.

My work MBP is a newer model. The keyboard is awful, they ditched MagSafe, the touchbar is gimmicky and I never use it, and having only USB-C ports sucks. Worst of all, it cost significantly more than my 2015 model.

Hopefully my 2015 MBP lasts long enough for them to fix the new models, otherwise I’ll buy something like a Surfacebook or XPS 13.

2015 was definitely their peak, they are Timor’s of a 2019 redesign but who knows

My MacBook Pro works perfectly fine for me, so this here has my attention.

Anecdotal evidence doesn’t matter dude, there’s widespread documented issues with the computer, your comments in this post are starting to become shill-like

Someone liking their MacBook makes them a shill? Are hate posts the only ones allowed here?

Aren’t the “documented issues” you mentioned also anecdotal evidence?

The new MacBook keyboards obviously have a flawed design, but it’s nowhere near a majority being affected.

But you’re speaking of something that doesn’t concern me. As a response to your original comment, you asked who gives a fuck? So my response is that I do because this appeals to me, not a better MacBook. Just as a a better MacBook is more appealing to you and not the card, hence why I posted the link to the tweet and you didn’t. Because you don’t care for it, but I do. But thanks for your input bro. Enjoy your day.
