I seriously could do a better job than him. I have so many friends and family that used to be diehard apple fans to the point of nausea, that now think of it as a meh kind of company.

I’m hopefully for maybe a return to a hardware focused Apple but we’ll see. Apple silicon was truly great, but I want moar.

BFD, I switched to a Fairphone 6 (De-Googled) and I’m not looking back. The only thing I might miss, a tiny bit, is the iWatch.

The fuck is that headline? The CEO is stepping down as CEO? Like, is it really important to let people know what CEO means?

Oh shit. Didn’t he just do an interview thing where the guy asked him about retiring and his perspective on when he would “know” it’s the right time?

At least it’s a hardware person taking over and not some marketing twat.

I wonder what this will mean for Apple and whether this is an ominous foreshadowing of the ongoing hardware crisis. It seems to me like this would only be happening if the Macbook Neo has a difficult coming year or two down the line and he’s taking the fall preemptively. Either that or perhaps undisclosed health issues.

We all knew it was coming, but what a time to pass the baton. Good luck, John.

Good, maybe I won’t have to see this a$$hole’s face in articles and such anymore.

Finally, the bean counter steps down so that an engineer can take the reins again. I mean, at least he didn’t fuck things up like so many other bean counters have. But he was only ever a bean counter.

Let me guess, the John Ternus guy is AI bro and Apple products are now gonna be heavily enshitified with AI.

I wish Craig Federighi was the replacement, he is obviously the most competent person at Apple right now, maybe ever save for Woz… But I’m pretty sure he’s not interested.

I believe his name is John Apple now.
