Nothing else matters except privacy and security for me. Apple provides that in their phones.
PCs from 2003 are full of vulnerabilities, use legacy instruction sets, lack power efficiency, lack manufacture support, do not support UEFI, have no IOMMU hardware isolation, have no modern VM capabilities, probably have no TPM, etc etc etc.
If Apple is anti-user, then we need to also start blaming every single hardware manufacturer that doesnt support their products anymore. Manufacturers of phones, motherboards, TVs, SSDs, displays, mice, keyboards, printers, network equipment, etc etc etc.
Ok then those that can’t afford Apple can shop other brands. They just won’t get the Apple support, and will have to rely on community efforts to keep their machines running.
None of that matters. No company can say what your hardware can do. Apple’s policies are disgustingly anti-user.

Nobody is forcing you to use an old PC. Others exist, the poor, who need affordable computers that last.

What exactly do you want Apple to do here?
