Ah, the sweet, sweet sound of victim blaming

Seriously, It's Apple. They must have known.
How should anyone Jane known, based on previous experience being the exact opposite behavior?
Apple has a strong and well known history of vendor lock-in and control.

These people are discovering, and hopefully coming to terms that they never owned any Apple device. The device was always a slave to Apple. It follows the orders of its master, not the foolish human who thought they owned it.

And its master has chosen not to have external nvidia devices work anymore. The lock in will continue. The walled garden will continue to encircle.

It helps to spread the word. Too many people stay in an abusive relationship for too long. Those people need support, not blaming.
Calling him or her a victim is riddiculus.
I don't think there is anything inherently wrong with that.
