Louis Rossman discuses many design flaws made by Apple over the years throughout their entire catalog.
This video also came out a few days after I praise the Macbook Pro series for being higher quality then their competition as well. 😂 🫣
Every youtube reviewer’s goal is to be popular enough to be a paid shill. It’s money they’re after, not your praises.
And Apple marketing invests a lot in their image in internet discussions. There are lot of shills and a lot of sock-puppets that prop them up. Every marketing company does but go to any popular Apple posts on reddit, hackernews, or Twitter, they just have same pattern.
Why this isn’t obvious is just idk.
absolutely.
Prop them up? Occam’s razor would imply that it is more-so people following trends than it is apple paying shills to get in the trenches and push lies.
if it’s so obvious, surely you can provide some tangible proof? Like I’m confident apple and every other company does this but the way you framed this take it seems to imply that is the main driver and the majority of positive sentiment is just bots or scripts, which is just absurd.
You think Apple is paying all the kids to clown on non-imessage bubble colors? Or is it more reasonable that there is something closer to a hive-mind in regards to what is trendy and popular/a status symbol?
Exactly. Apple only cares about the bigger fish, like big YouTube reviewers and their own presentation. They let their fanbase take care of the rest.
I really don’t think large brands like Apple have that many paid shills. Apple has a large fan base and good marketing. People that like their devices just naturally repeat the marketing line because they don’t really know why they like the devices, Apple marketing just told them that is why it is good. And fanatics will spend mental energy defending them for no good reason
Lemmy and the fediverse have sizable Apple communities and Apple is definitely not paying anyone to shill here
Paying influencers, either in money or gadgets, is part of Apple’s advertising. Their whole appeal is their popularity and “affordable luxury”.
I’m not expressing this well, but I hope you know what I mean.
