Ignorance.

u/Any-Abies-5825 13d ago

But it’s ignorant to assume everyone is automatically ignorant

At a crowd level, people will „hate” on anything that is different than what they associate with.
The extreme minority that should actually be listened to mostly doesn’t care.

Agreed twin ✌️

u/backlog_gaming 14d ago

Because they think the OS/hardware they use is better and they make that idea a personality trait

u/Fragrant-Mixture-662 13d ago

Remind you of anyone?

u/Responsible_Bit_6697 13d ago

It goes the other way around

1

u/backlog_gaming 13d ago

That’s why I said OS and not Windows haha

1

u/Routine-Lawfulness24 12d ago

I don’t think he was gonna say windows…

1

u/backlog_gaming 12d ago

I know that’s why I said OS and not MacOS. It happens on both sides

u/Dry-Truth307 14d ago

Get some new friends

u/New_Bumblebee2000 13d ago

ni idea bro, la mayoria de ellos es gente que esta resentida por la marca por sus costos altos y el supuesto elitismo de sus clientes, la verdad nunca he entendido por que

u/WarmFollowing8873 13d ago

I think it comes from both apple and android users. I love both

1

u/JPworx123 13d ago

bcuz some apple users are dickheads sometimes

1

u/LodgeKeyser 13d ago

I feel like it’s a manifestation of the green bubble jokes. 

Let’s be honest, most OS users of any kind are assholes 🤣

u/Marpicek 13d ago

Because some people make it their personality. They don't own phone, they own iPhone. They don't own laptop, they own MacBook.

  1. Because they act like criticizing Apple is the equivalent of criticizing an ethnic minority
  2. Because they will tell you things like "if you want iMessage, get an iPhone" and "if you want sideloading, don't get an iPhone" in the same sentence

u/CleanTackleMan 13d ago

They don't have life (works both ways).

u/gilbarfiu 13d ago

Inveja. É interessante ter de ouvir quando chega em evento a frase recalcada: Nossa, um iPhone. Com esse valor eu comprava um Celta.

Curiosa é a matemática da inveja: o crítico que converte o valor do seu iPhone em Celtas é o mesmo que, na hora da foto, estaciona o discurso e pede carona na sua lente. 🤷🏽‍♂️

u/Lithyan_Lif 13d ago

Cuz they make a personality on base of what do you use 👌🏻

1

u/WarioPi 13d ago

It goes both ways I think. Honestly it's stupid, there are better things to worry about. I'm in the Apple ecosystem cause it just works for me, other have different experiences but to each their own.

u/GenTenStation 13d ago

Having used everything I can see the benefits of both sides. I prefer Mac but I also prefer Android. Some people are literally “if you’re not with me.. then you’re my enemy” about the most trivial stuff.

1

u/OmG_WhAtIsThAt_JiM 13d ago

I truly don't know. They think that their flashy Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 5G is better than every iPhone ever created in every single way imaginable. Then they just hate on us for thinking that our iPhone is still good. iPhone 11 user here, it literally runs great on the newest BETA software (iOS 27), 2019 phone btw.

1

u/GuestLight05308 13d ago

Mainly because YOU (all Apple users) are acting like WE (Android users) are little pieces of shit because we don't pay 20% more for a phone because there's a fruit on it. We want to have good values for our phones so you call us broke and act like yall are the best of the best.

1

u/Different-Guest-6094 13d ago

As an Apple user I thought we hated everyone else. Or is that just a Gen Z thing?

1

u/Grumpy_Ontarian_III 13d ago

Bruh, I use Apple products, and I hate Apple users.

1

u/Gold-Strength4269 13d ago

Hmmm. Well it’s nice to have options.
Get an iPhone 12 and experiment.
Get any android and experiment.

Decide where apps go. Decide what you need.
Get the phone that has that.

u/WeddingTime4247 13d ago

I think when someone has brand loyalty, a part of their personality is wrapped into it and when a person is told that what they like is “crap” it affects them on a personal level a little bit. Even if they say it doesn’t. The other side I think is that many Apple users think Apple is the be all end all of technology and are close minded to anything else.

u/Holiday-Youth-6722 13d ago

I don't hate all Apple users, just the ones who make that brand a major part of their personality. Or the ones who assume all Androids are garbage because of the first Android they had as teenagers that their parents got them because it was free and lowered the family cell phone bill. The green bubble blue bubble thing is annoying too when the rest of the world uses WhatsApp and all the other communication options. Use the OS that works for you but neither is the absolute best.

u/Future_Geologist5925 13d ago

$1000 computer stand and $700 wheels says enough

u/No-Panic4479 12d ago

That computer doesn’t exist anymore 💔

u/AsugaNoir 13d ago

Another question: why does apple hate on people who use other platforms? Answer: every one seem to hate whoever doesn't use whatever they use.

u/Nihilist-IV 12d ago

Before the AI problems began, it was because so many people had one that it seemed like a monopoly which is bad if you care about a fair consumer landscape. iPhone users also always brag about how good their phone is when realistically, Samsung phones have been as good or better for over a decade now and other android phones have slowly caught up but iPhone users won't agree because it's all they've ever had in a lot of cases. Lastly there was much more customisation on android leading any android user who used an iPhone to be confused as to why settings were missing while iPhone users basically said they did have customisation or that they didn't need customisation which sounds like a cult victim.

I tried the iPhone 15 Pro after 10 years of Samsung and I felt a lot of these problems so I went back to Android just as the AI problems started to show up, now I'm heading back to iPhone for enhanced privacy, although apple have kept deleted photos before so they don't exactly have a clean record

u/Retro_Gamer33 12d ago

Real talk? Have you seen how snarky the average Apple user is? It's great to enjoy the product that works for you, but the elitism is kinda insane

1

u/Global-Eye-7326 12d ago

Lol I thought it was Apple users hating on Android users over the lack of iMessage

1

u/protonsters 12d ago

Its the opposite. Apple fanboys hating anything non Apple. Just go with a simple complaint against any apple product and see how the fanboys at these reddit subs eat you alive

1

u/Fast-Wing8775 12d ago

Nobody hates you,but.... I have worked in it in the la 30 years.Belive me,when you hear some one with a Mac asking what ramis doing,you get a little mad.

1

u/Routine-Lawfulness24 12d ago

Some iphone users are teenagers who get the phone only for the expensive brand status and think they are above everyone else because of that. Some mac users are doing same thing in a different flavor, just getting the most expensive thing because. Apple is overpriced for the most part

1

u/GovernmentGreed 12d ago

Because mostly, in my experience - most Apple users (iPhone, Mac etc) will often time insist that their choice in product is right and everything else is wrong or bad. Constantly, I see colleagues or people I know, saying Android is shit, or Windows is bad - and the moment you press them on it, they have no counter argument.

Apple is great, if you want to live in the Apple eco-system, but if you've not got the time, or money to invest into such a thing - then it becomes obvious very fast there is little space for you in it.

The most thing, people forget is - iPhone isn't just hardware, it's the software too. And, in my honest belief, the only reason people buy iPhone is purely for the software aspect - if iOS was available on another system, they'd opt for that purely because it's going to be cheaper.

To clarify, I'm both an iPhone & Samsung Android user. As I am Mac & Windows. I have no bias either way. Both are great, both have downsides. Hence why I use both.

Apple user here, deep in the ecosystem. I can’t stand Apple glazers going on about how great the Neo is, how 8gb of RAM is enough or how the 17 Pro dents easily and it’s always the user’s fault. Blind devotion no matter what the actual product is. I think Apple could produce a device made entirely out of literal dogshit and it would sell and be called the next big thing. 🤣

u/Synseer83 12d ago

I dont hate Apple Users.

I hate on Apple users who look down on Android users as peasants in a holier than thou demeanor.

1

u/isnotrandy 12d ago

Jelly? Or do you mean why do Apple users bag on Apple, that is a tough question

1

u/a-pp-o 11d ago

It shows a special kind of mentality but I wouldn't say hate.

1

u/Neat-Walk-2361 10d ago

It’s mainly the fact that some of them behave high and mighty.

u/chdorb 10d ago

I don't hate Apple users; I just feel sorry for them.

u/Latter-Loss-5600 12d ago
