      No CEO in the history of the human race has ever been left a better starting hand than Tim Cook was left by Steve Jobs. They were lightyears ahead of the competition.

      Now they’re behind on everything, making promises they can’t keep, wasting billions of dollars and a decade of R&D on dead-ends like self-driving cars and the AVP.

      Well Steve Jobs made Apple undeniably Apple when he had to rescue the company he was kicked out of. I don’t think they’ll forget that any time soon, they have made multiple movies about it. Tim Cook just played it safe.

      Lol, no

      Apple simply absorbed it’s allocation of newly printed money from the Federal reserve

      It’s simply another asset that inflated. Unlike your salary

      Every tech company had a massive growth during the same years, Apple is actually on the ones that had the lest growth, Tim Cook was just lucky to be CEO during a time of tech bonanza, he by himself didnt do anything noteworthy as a CEO

      Steve Jobs‘ perspective: Let’s make amazingly great products that people have never even thought of. Also, yell at people.

      Tim Apple’s perspective: Don’t do anything super stupid to ruin this gravy train. Has idea ever: Make products thinner —> ??? —> profit.

      Tim Apple just released the same thing over and over again with inferior tech and fanboys ate it up

      I just got a new iPhone 17 pro… the actual differences from my 13 non pro are so insignificant I am struggling not to return it. 

      He may have made it a juggernaut but they definitely lost a lot of innovation.

      On the other side, they bet big on arm and fucking killed it.

      These articles don’t need to be re posted into eternity.

      Also – it’s the same braindead comments “he’s not Jobs, Apple doesn’t innovate blah blah”

      Apple is UNDENIABLY a hugely successful company. Stop acting like they aren’t.

      Your worship of profit is punished by the enshittification of everything you love. what’s worse is it’s not even your money

      Steve Jobs already handed him the basic recipe. Tim Cook was the master of supply chain and took that to build and sell at a massive scale. Also some of Steve Jobs ideas were self inflicting wounds like keeping screen size to 4″. Once he was gone, how long did it take for Apple to go 6″?

      Meta, Amazon, and Alphabet had similar gains over the same time period. Tim Apple did good, but he wasn’t unique.

      If you ever read the book called Loonshot, it’s kind of interesting how they talk about different types of leadership. What the author breaks down as S-type versus P-type. In short, basically, P-type is like jobs that goes for big breakthroughs and flashy stuff. Whereas the , S-type are the ones that have incremental improvements. both types are necessary according to the author and he gave examples of companies that failed by not having one or the other.

      Supply chain wizard. Using the phone cpu in the laptop (Neo) is going to be standard for entry level laptops within the years.

      Jobs could never made Apple as big as Cook has.  But without Jobs Cook would never have had a killer product to maximize in the first place.

    25. tuna_safe_dolphin on

      I have never been a Steve Jobs fan but Tim Cook just milked the cash cow that Jobs made possible.

      Without Jobs, there could be no Cook.

      Money is not everything, but because Apple made money everything to them, the company lost the vision that the experience was the product, and we have all suffered for it.

      Look I’m fully aware that I carry a miracle in my pocket that holds and transmits all of human knowledge at the touch of a button. It’s hard to complain. However I predicted, and was proven right, that they were intentionally bricking the phones to get you to buy a new one. That’s the real innovation. You’re basically on a hardware subscription service.

    28. Mobile_Morale on

      And here I figured it was them selling their shit at exorbitant prices and bringing out a new phone every year getting people caught into a fomo keeping up with the jones bullshit. That’s and selling a monitor stand and wheels for the Mac for hundreds of dollars.

      Hell we’re not that far from when apple was purposely throttling phones just to get people to buy a new one.

    29. KennyL0gin on

      Yeah. Steve Jobs was there to oversee the release of the iMac, iPod, iPhone, Mac Book,and Apple Watch.
      Tim Apple was there for Airpods, higher prices, and staff cuts to pump the stock.

      „not trying to be Steve jobs“

      Proceed to make systems as anti consumer and hostile to self repair and upgrades as possible.

      See how „easy“ it is to open a Mac Studio just to dust it off.

      Bonus point, try to upgrade the SSD .

    33. imtalkintou on

      You’re right, instead they made a restrictive phone locking down most customization and charging people more money than the competition just cause it had the ‚Apple‘ name.

      Somehow they even convinced people that this was ‚better.‘

      I’m sure if the EU didn’t step in, they’d have their 2nd or 3rd version of a proprietary charger too.

      How do we know Apple wouldn’t be a 10trillion juggernaut if he tried to be Steve Jobs

    35. Excellent_Divide_128 on

      Ya and then made of fool of himself by bending knee to the red face clown.

    36. Brief-Night6314 on

      Steve Jobs set stuff up with iPod and iPhone and iPad and Mac so Apple can coast off of all that lol they don’t really invent new stuff anymore. Like they aren’t even doing anything with AI and Siri is a joke.

    38. Vegetable-King7626 on

      And by charging people for non innovation eg plugs cables and dongles

      This wiener is the reason you have to pay for all the things you used to get for free
