Apple has just added two devices to its list of vintage and obsolete products, including the last Mac mini with Intel.

    F-em. Late 2014 Mac mini plex server (also running all the 'arrs) still going strong. I’m not buying a new one until it shorts out and dies.

      I have a Black Mac Mini as my primary desktop device. It has always been flakey.

      When I tried to trade it in on an M1 MacMini, they didn’t even offer me a Gift Card!?

      I’m currently in the process of migrating everything to Linux, where possible.

          Homer Simpson: “Ooo! A new community to subscribe to.”

          (Things would have to get way worse than they already for me to drop Apple as a platform. But I’ve already canceled every subscription I had with them over Hong Kong & Trump. I’ll buy used for the rest of my life if I have to.)

            Thank you for reducing your reliance on them. Every step away from Apple is progress that should be applauded.

            The iPhone is the hardest to replace as Linux phones won’t be good until 2029.

                The amount of investment into the alternatives quadruples after the developers fix all these issues:

                5G

                VolTE

                GPS

                E-Sim

                Lack of apps

                RCS
