    This critical problem has persisted for years across multiple MacOS versions without a permanent fix from Apple.

    YEARS?!? Not even remotely excusable, let alone acceptable. What the hell is going on?

      People blindly buy any new apple product. Why spend the money to change something when an overwhelming majority will buy the product anyway.

          I didn’t mean specifically apple, but that’s what this article is about. The point still stands why fix it when people still buy it. Chill out, sounds like I hit a nerve.

          Diehard loyalty isn’t something exclusive to Apple. Don’t try and make it seems so.

          no it’s just the one with the highest markup for brand loyalty (aka: stupid tax)

          Apple has probably the best marketing in the world. Part of that marketing success means that Apple is better at bedazzling people and making a product appealing beyond just its practical use. There’s anything wrong with Apple users, but Apple is definitely better at commodity fetishism than any other company I can think of.
