I disagree. Currently apple does way more technological advancements than we ever had. Imagine an rtx5090 performance in a small factor of a 300w box. But it is also 96gb of ram on top and it also have the fastest CPU on earth (blender benchmark). The entire Mac mini M6 costs like a single 5090.
And considering how android moves backwards, enshittifies, removing features and adding fuckton of tracking, while apple is moving towards preserving privacy and anti-ai.
Don’t get me wrong, apple is still a walled garden, but they don’t even block you from installing Linux on their apple silicon macbooks.
Apple does not preserve privacy, they just collect the data themselves. They are also pushing AI, with their “Apple Intelligence”, so are just as much an offender in that space as anyone.
Also, them “pushing the envelope”, doesn’t really advance much. Nobody can use their phones hardware anyway due to the walled garden and anyone buying Apple products is doing it for the software and statement. People who don’t like their closed ecosystem are not going to buy their phones, even if the devices are 20% faster than the next.
Apple will do anything to line their pockets further, Google just realised they can get away with this too now, the companies were scared before, but now they know customers are just pushovers and will buy up anything. The world is fucked.

Um, no. There is no Linux Kernel that you can install to any apple silicon past M3.
Virtual machines do not count.
