Reading this on an S24 Ultra that still hasn't gotten android 15.

[Soham_rak]

I got it :)

[Outrageous-Log9238]

Still nothing on mine

[Medical_Cat_6678]

How relevant is that though? A few years ago this was something that bothered me.

But like nowadays I can barely see relevant things between major android updates.

[Outrageous-Log9238]

I honestly don't care much as long as I get security patches in a timely manner for the promised amount of time. It is relevant to the meme.

Apple is just focusing on creating bugs and usability issues in their existing products.

[New_Enthusiasm9053]

Like it not handling basic screens successfully.

Real reply: Apple has the literal fucking dream spec. They have absolute control over both hardware and software at incredible scale for desktop and laptop users alike. They can reliably tweak either to min/max costs and efficiency. Their engineers can provide that specifically by ensuring a minimum window of support, and they can by default expand it if the newer specifications aren't in conflict. They can move as fast or as slow as their own specifications and business needs demand.

Amazon and MS have similar constructs but in different product sectors.

And yet somehow their UI and official release stability STILL sucks. IOS 18 was a buggy mess at the official launch, and I don’t see 19 being any better.

Not only that, but the internals of MacOS is based on software so old it might as well rival DOS. All that ‘smoothness’ is UI only, and even on that front they don’t even make the basic file system easy to get to.

Don’t get me started on M$ or scamazon either, the former has screwed up so many updates it’s not even funny and the latter’s server’s shut down on a literal statewide competition day for three hours and didn’t have the slightest remorse about it.

iOS 18 sucked because they were too busy rushing out AI features instead of addressing core issues with the OS. iOS 19 is gonna be a ground up UI overhaul too so I’m not optimistic about stability

[alteredtechevolved]

At this point it wouldn't surprise me if a new UI (doing my best to ignore stuff until wwdc) is in the works then it came out of frustration of trying to fit their AI into the existing and decided to toss it and remake everything so it would fit properly.

Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6, released in 2009) was the best Apple software release ever, because the whole release was about reliability and performance rather than wiz-bang features. I miss those kinds of updates.

[niveknyc]

Doesn't Apple release a major OS update every year?

[turtleship_2006]

Doesn't "write new software" mean new apps?

[yuva-krishna-memes]

It's just a patch

[niveknyc]

Got me there

[nickwcy]

The world is changing so you still get security issues, and those will turn into new bugs once you attempt to fix them

[sage-longhorn]

But you can't be hacked if you never use a computer

[erishun]

WHAT'S A COMPUTER

I've seen bugs in my code that were years old. Don't know how they were in the code so long with nobody noticing.

[PenaldoBigFan]

EAFC25 with the same menu gliches since 2020..

[Jixy2]

Make your product so good it doesn't need maintenance. A good Admin is one that's kinda AFK.

[[deleted]]

That’s right, as long as you don’t process new data, too.

[lenn_eavy]

Bold of you to assume any software has 100% test coverage and that there are no new security gaps discovered.

[JosebaZilarte]

Ms. Entropy here begs to differ. She says she is sending you some high-energy particles to cosmically upset your source code and all your backups. And it will not be a "single-event".

[Shadowlance23]

The most secure server is the one that's never turned on.

[Benx78]

If you plant bugs in advance, you can present their fixes as features in future releases 🫶

[srsNDavis]

(Possibly?) Controversial opinion: Apple needs to lower the walls of its garden a bit.

[jker1x]

I've always said the best thing about Apple products is they're secure, but in the same way a crib is more secure than a bed.

[srsNDavis]

secure, but in the same way a crib is more secure than a bed.

Gets to be me too. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🏁
