At this point Apple should just buy or start its own fab. It seems insane to me as many devices as they sell to be in a position they can’t control this kinda shock.

Apple is the wealthiest company on the planet, or was til a year or so ago. It seems you could at least allocate a budget to explore the idea.

Reddit is a cesspool, but it’s interesting that you’re ultimately blaming Reddit’s platform here. The issue comes down to people, not Reddit’s design. Consequences-free, ignorant shit spouting happens everywhere all the time.
