Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

According to Which?, Apple has made it difficult for iPhone and iPad users to choose alternative data storage options, effectively pushing them towards iCloud while suppressing competition.

Get a Synology and fuck the system.

Apple overcharging? Never!

Apple laughs in trillions.

Even if you are part of the Apple ecosystem, there is zero reason to pay for iCloud. There are free alternatives.

This holds up for simple file hosting, but the entire suite of Apple apps supports collaboration, many with live editing features. Slow sync times would put a damper on that.

Do you mean office suite stuff like Keynote and Pages or are you talking more complex things like Logic Pro?
