This community might be a better place for this question.

This is a broader audience tho. And I'd like to do a series going through the respective categories so I must respectfully disagree although I appreciate your effort to help find a more granular audience. I think this is right where the post needs to be but I thank you for your efforts.
Unfortunately, that community is filled with anything but Apple enthusiasts…
I think if you really are someone who really uses Apple stuff to the extent its basically your ecosystem, you should be able to see some of the absurdities or sometimes the anti-user-friendly quirks that should be corrected.
For example, HomePod should have bluetooth in a addition to AirPlay. Fight me ;)
I will not, sir. I agree with you. Although I get why they don’t, at least on the big HomePods. Bluetooth audio quality sucks for such a nice speaker array.
They broke my fucking heart, lol. I was so ready to kick my Echo Dot to the curb but now I just use it as a glorified bluetooth speaker (What HomePod was supposed to be). There goes $150 I'm never getting back :(
I only bought HomePods but I’m fully Apple as far as devices and any non-Apple devices have apps that allow them to Airplay so the only use case where Bluetooth would be helpful is for guests. I haven’t had a single one that needed to do that, though, that also didn’t have an iPhone.
If the next revision adds BT, it would be perfect.
Agreed. I believe they will see the light. Just like MagSafe
Mmmm… MagSafe ❤️
I am so glad it exists for phones now too.
Is it back on Macbooks again? Should have never dropped it
It is. My black MBA has it and so does my work MBP.
Fuck, shoulda waited
I agree with you.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
