I’ve given up especially when it comes to Linux vs Mac on the topic of open source. People will have such a violent reaction that they cannot possibly consider Apple as anything else but the literal antithesis of open source.

if you think Apple has a place in open source, you’d be right, but you’ll also get attacked for it because Apple bad.

Only a handful of months ago Apple released open source AI models that run on-device.

It’s so obvious over many years that Apple has always gotten their hands dirty in the open source world going back to even before the birth of OSX, both with use and contributions, yet this is stomped out by the notion of expensive and elitist Apple could never and would never actually bother contributing to open source codebases

I'm glad someone, mostly, got my point. I'm not an Apple fanboy by any means. I'm a "use the right tool for the job you are trying to do" guy. For me, that means using a mac to make music and art, using linux on older machines and for specific purposes, and using windows to game and work. But by golly, people sure do get up in arms about it.
