    This is exactly why I never pick iphones, because a good chunk of the time you miss out on all the niche things you can do on a smartphone.

      I never pic up an iPhone because Mac discontinued support for my $6000 editing computer within two years when they scrapped the mac towers and went laptop only.

          2011 Mac Pro, which was discontinued in 2012, while support for the design was fully discontinued in 2013, when mac decided it would completely change everything and focus on the trash can design.

          I get upgrading and whatever the fuck, but this was supposed to be an upgradeable machine, like a user built pc, but then they just fucking dumped support within 2 years, which should be fucking criminal considering its outrageous price.

            It doesn’t make my life as a network engineer hell at all, having to figure out how to make decade old technology fit into a fiber network in a windows environment.

              They fit pretty well in the storage closet until the companies life cycle replacement sees them replaced with Windows machines.

            How can you tell something that looks like a trash can that it belongs in the trash? It is the trash.

        I would not get your hopes up. The last I heard the rumor said that you would only be able to side load on an iPhone if it was activated on a European carrier

            Fair enough. I’m just saying from apple I’d expect nothing more but barely passing the definition malicious compliance.

      My first smartphone ran Android 2.0 and back then apps were developed for iOS first. How the times have changed.
