   OK, I'll bite.   
      
   So do I. [Find Apple products to be rock solid.]   
   I use Apple for my 'pretty' hardware. I use an iPhone because its the best   
   cell phone device. [Which IS, however, quickly changing for many reasons.] I   
   use a 27" iMac for working with video and audio. And, I'm going to buy the new   
   M1 because it is freaking awesome.   
      
   However, even though back in the day Apple was still a closed-environment,   
   Apple used to attempt to serve their customers.    
      
   More and more Apple is trying to force their customers to buy the newest   
   products, not repair their perfectly fine hardware and own them.   
      
   Thats why I made the statement concerning the camera 'feature'. Its not a   
   feature, its horrible. The only reason they do this is so that you'll be a   
   good Apple customer and buy the newest iPhone as opposed to replacing the   
   camera.   
      
   It sucks. Once a Linux option is good enough to be a daily driver, I'm jumping   
   off the cell phone devices. And I may choose Android over Apple, even today;   
   with Tmux and other software allowing me to run a full Android environment   
   makes it a better choice of ME. I appreciate you wanting to have the current   
   Apple products; they are great - but they certainly control their customers   
   today, much more than they've done historically.
