Comment Re: When did it transition (Score 1) 63

Green bubbles were not introduced by Apple to bully or stigmatize non iPhone users. ... When the iPhone first launched and iMessage did not exist, the bubbles were green... ALL of them ALL the time even between two iPhone users.

OK, so then Apple has always been guilty of their messaging bubbles not meeting contrast standards, thus not meeting the requirements of Part 14.

The heart of the matter is whether it is anti competitive behavior. Your argument "their house, their rules. " that can be thrown back in your face in that the house Apple is in also has rules, which Apple may be breaking.

Part 14 has nothing to do with anti-competitive behavior, it requires the device to be accessible, which iMessage is to users with disabilities..

Except for the green bubbles which don't have accessible contrast and go against Apple's own design rules (ironically done by design to make them look as inferior as possible)

straightforward as installing an OS update

Straightforward to you maybe. To some that's incredibly confusing and/or bothersome to the point where it isn't done.

People don't give a shit and aren't as knowledgeable as you about such things, much like I'm sure you're lacking in caring/knowledge about something else. This whole chain of posts boils down to how you can't imagine that people think differently than you that you want to make it a law that people must go through the same actions you chose to do.

You have it backwards, manufacturers come preinstalled with an OS, which by and large is Windows, because the average person just wants something that turns on and works. Just because something isn't the way you like, doesn't mean it's some evil conspiracy.
There's Framework, and since they do what you want, I guess they are the most popular laptops ever and everyone is flocking to buy them.
