I don’t think Apple’s business model fits the definition of “monopoly”, but they are a different kind of anti-competitive, in my opinion. Forcing users to use your own ecosystem by forcing competitors to be shittier or nonexistent through technical means is still anti-competitive.
Apple is not a monopoly in any sense of the word

You’re not forced to use their phones.
No, which is why I said it’s not a monopoly. It’s a different form of anti-consumerism.
