Is this the slow decline of the Apple “cult”?
My “quirk” on this blog years ago was the fact that I, an Apple fan, would try using Android and Windows devices for extended periods and share my thoughts on those products. Whenever I tried to go all-in on one of these other companies’ products, I’d look around for indie bloggers and enthusiast
