This is a silly on purpose, yes?

Because apple is a ridiculous nightmare and my old ipod doesn't even show up when plugged into my PC and doesn't allow me to transfer my own files to it, outside of iTunes, which is basically unsupported on my OS. Or cloud share, requiring Pay Apple money for the space.

Yes. It was a joke. iPhones have the reputation you describe.

I am looking forward to trading mine for a Linux phone some day, assuming it doesn't become illegal to do so under our new AI-worshipping, conservative, surveillance state, fascist overlords.
