I wouldn't say that's really accurate. It is true that it is the aspect that is getting the most attention now, but thats only because its recent, in the news and EU forced their hand upon it.

Apple among regular consumers has been criticised for years, if not decades for its overpriced hardware and among more technical crowd has always been criticised for its closed source and incompatible software.

Of course, people who say their entire empire is built upon a bunch of cables are wrong lol

Correct! For me, the closed source “walled garden” approach is the most frustrating.

But, dude, dude, dude… remember the 30-pin transition debacle? I’m having bad flashbacks lol

I am not old enough to remember that I'm afraid. But I do still have some of those 30 pins phones and chargers
