    Not really though? Apple makes good hardware and operating systems, and generally have a good privacy-forward stance when it comes to software (in my opinion).

    Unfortunately it’s not as cut and dry as “use Gentoo” - if my ad revenue is potentially worth x, lemme just pay x for the service. I know I’m not alone in this sense.

      Yeah but when dealing with closed-source, they can just pull the wool over your eye and profit off of you twice. Apple has a façade of privacy but is in fact worse than other platforms, which at least don’t try to pretend.
