But the opposite is assuming that Apple has a "responsibility" towards its existing users and has to acknowledge their expectations from them. A sentiment which famously led Steve Jobs to respond that he doesn't understand this, because "people pay us to make that decision for them" and "If people like our products they will buy them; if they don't, they won't" [0] So according to Steve Jobs himself, the only Apple-acknowledged way to disagree with Apple is to NOT buy their products, and by extend into the services-world of today it means STOP USING their products. Now Steve Jobs doesn't officially run this company anymore, but I don't see any indication that this philosophy has changed in any way. [0]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5f8bqYYwps&t=772s |

Most people are not going to migrate to Android, Windows, Linux or whatever else just to make macOS marginally better.
And it's fine: marginal quality improvements of a product are not the "responsibility" of consumers.
