Since a lot of folks sort by “all” on Lemmy, popular posts get overwhelmed by people who don’t daily drive operating systems like iOS or MacOS.

I like outside perspectives and all, but when the majority of the “community” discussion is coming from people who aren’t even using these products, it is pretty hard to have informed conversations.

Moreover, I feel like this type of engagement creates a lot of threads that get pretty combative and catty. They’re often started by people who are trying to argue and convince iOS / MacOS users that they’ve picked the wrong side of the fence.

Anyone else feel me on this? I imagine this is a problem for other communities on Lemmy as well.

    Lemmy is full of Linux and Windows users that are very anti-Apple. While I can appreciate constructive criticism from Apple users, I find it pretty annoying when these other folks drop in on threads and just spew nonsense.

      Lemmy is full of people that feel they are owed stuff for free. And, I mean, it’s working out for them so far, so I understand why they would consider Apple products waste of money.
