Seriously every front page story these days is full of negative comments. The negative overwhelmingly outweighs the positive. Every product sucks, every experience is horrible. Tim Cook needs to go. Everyone else on the executive team needs to go. And every story has someone complaining about lack of Mac updates. This is no longer an Apple rumor site it's an Apple hate site.
I just put those people that start to stick out on my ignore list. And glance over the arguments of those who come with great constructive feedback.
This is still a fanboi site, or at the least, enough people that really do care about their product, the company and the services they get from it. Me included.
While there are moments that Apple can really be a frustrating one thing after the other kinda thing. Everything else from it is just fine. I really enjoy the products I have, the customer support they gave me, and all that.
Otherwise I would have moved to Windows.
But yeah, the trolls that just come out because they get attention and feed the drama just by being negative and sucking others into that, I have no problem if people be a bit more generous with the report button so the staff can give these guys a well deserved infraction for not really contributing within the spirit of the community.
It's easier to post a strong opinion, a concern, or point out something that's not going well. Compared to someone posting 'yeh, its going great for my phone today'. It's one of the reasons I try to be supportive of some people simply asking for help. They posted for a reason. I don't need to be sarcastic and reply: learn how to use the search feature OMG!' .. And why I try to tell others that my experience with something they ask 'does that happen to you too', is 'no, actually, it goes pretty well for me, i dont have that problem'. Hopefully this will show people it's really not just negative stuff.
Someone posting a thread "the battery on iphone 7 sucks" .. doesn't mean it actually sucks. It's their personal one off experience. The 99% that dosen't post "well, it doesn't for me" is something you won't read. The two people from the 1% that goes "yeah for me too!" give the impression it actually sucks, and tomorrow someone posts "everybody has been complaining about the bad battery, #batterygate!" ... Negativity is relative. But it doesn't mean there is a lot of positivity.
I dont think this site is a machate instead of maclove site. There's just a bunch who troll, and a bunch who have legitimate concerns, and a whole bunch of people who have no issues with Apple.
