It’s important to note that opting into the Apple ecosystem locks you out of any form of agency on your hardware. They’ve moved hard against repairability and they maintain a stranglehold on spare parts.

For that reason I prefer my personal desktop computer to be a PC I can open, maintain or upgrade myself in terms of hardware. The operating system is my choice as well.

I understand not everybody has the means or interest to tinker with their machine, but I still think Apple’s business practices regarding hardware is wasteful and polluting.
