Sorry for being off topic, but I'm not finding any substance in these Apple/Mac articles or subsequent conversations we've had lately. I wanted to make a separate ask HN post for this but does anyone else feel like this website has been oversaturated pointless armchair views on The Current State of Apple™? In other words I feel as though lately this type of content has been as rubbish as say, arguing about video game consoles...

Agreed. Seems like these articles are a great way for "news" sites to get clicks! I think there are legitimate discussions to be had about Apple's current state and future direction, but for the most part they seem to be vastly outnumbered by meaningless crap like "LOL it only has ONE PORT? WAKE UP $HEEPLE" and so on.

I won't read this site because they block ad blocker users, but I wouldn't expect it to contain much signal.

Amen. On top of that, articles like this just like slag on Apple because it gets clicks. I'm ok with bashing on Apple but not when it's for a completely arbitrary reason. The arguments are getting old on both sides.
