- gruez 3mo agoYou think the situation is better on Android? The margins for Android OEMs are even thinner.

- HlessClaudesman 3mo agoYou would think, but My 2019 MacBook can barely run an older xcode that doesn't emulate newer phones / tablets. Some of these responses to my above post are a bit haughty. I'm just reporting from the trenches that the Apple tax is real, not everyone can afford to keep paying up, and a 20% cost increase is huge.
