       @aral out of ignorance: isn't Apple as involved as Microsoft with Israel (without mentioning that e.g. Apple allowed for the Chinese Government to unleash a huge mass surveillance on Uyghurs through their phone and Tim Cook has just gave Trump a golden plate)The comment is not for controversy, just to understand the rationale on boycotting one but not the other.

       @aral Seems fair to mention, but now it looks like Apple is a perfect company with no downsides, shouldnt they also get a note?

       @atjn Just because every trillion-dollar corporation is not exactly the same doesn’t mean that any trillion-dollar corporation is your friend.Apple is far from perfect but they’re still supported so that’s their note.https://www.huffpost.com/entry/tim-cook-gift-giving-meeting-with-trump_n_6894a18ae4b0b5385d5f56db

       @alx I don’t see them listed on Francesca Albanese’s list https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/7/1/un-report-lists-companies-complicit-in-israels-genocide-who-are-they or on the BDS web site, so, with the general caveat that no trillion-dollar corporation is your friend, it doesn’t appear that they are involved in the way those other companies are.

       @aral My games also lack official Windows builds, being available on Android, GNU/Linux, and soon FreeBSD. My official reason for this is Microsoft Smart Screen, but i now have better reasons to avoid everything that comes from Microsoft
