> Appleās core base is different, they embrace change regardless of its utility. I really don't know how one can come to this conclusion. Apple people bitch about _everything_ that changes. I think the one and only exception might be any time that they added retina screens to something. Source: I am an apple user. |

There's bitching but Apple's audience is always the first to absorb the change that eventually hits the whole industry.
MacOS Classic to Mac OS X? They kept Classic Mode around for 5 years for a reason. Eventually the benefits outweighed the drawbacks.
Loss of floppy drives and serial ports in the iMac? Bitching galore, but it was the right move.
Loss of built in DVD/CD drive on the Macbook Pro (circa 2012 with the retina MBP)? Bitching, but when's the last time we needed it so often?
Lots of bitching about iPhone 6 screen sizes being too big, leading to the iPhone SE. But ultimately more people liked the bigger size.
Lots of bitching about USB-C vs. Magsafe, but ultimately USB-C is proving to be the correct move.
The touchbar feels like the main misstep. I think most of the bitching would go away if they brought back haptics on the ESC key.
