> fsociety remarked (quite correctly) that there are a large number of people who constantly feel the need to denigrate Macs

And in response I remarked (very accurately) that there's an even larger number of people who constantly feel the need to always gush over anything Mac. This very thread is full of such examples.

> "That's not true. I have a Mac, and I don't like it very much."

Misrepresenting much? I said it's an okay laptop. Gets the job done.

> You said they were ridiculously overpriced, which implies that no reasonable person could look at one and think it was worth buying.

That's true. I can get other okay laptops for perhaps half the price. But they won't be as sexy as Apples. They certainly don't have fanboys taking offense at someone saying they are just okay.

> You came into a subthread

I was the one that started the subthread, by daring to say that the M1 I use has a speaker as bad as any other laptop I used. Oh the horror.

The speakers sound amazing to me and are magnitudes better than any other laptop speakers I've had. You saying they are not and that we're just "circlejerking over anything Mac" is objectively false.

Now stop trolling. Your other obnoxious comment about this was flagged and killed. Do better.
