I’m talking here about their hardware (MacBook, iPhone, iPad, iWatch) and software (iCloud, Apple One, mail, passwords, wallet, other apps), in terms of owning all of that.

What’s your opinion on using everything that comes from Apple? Is there anything that you would throw away from the “basket” full of apples? If yes, then what would be that and why?

    I personally find the Apple One family plan to be an awesome deal. Music/Arcade/TV/Fitness/News. Out of all of these, news is pretty “meh”, though you do get access to popular magazines/newspapers. Everything else is great.

    I am not an all Apple guy, since I am a PC gamer, but I use Apple products most of the time.

      Since Reddit became unadulterated evil I’ve been using Apple News to fill my clickbait/doomscrolling quotient and it’s actually not too bad once you customize your following sources/topics list. I pay for News+ so I rarely run into a paywall. I’ve suppressed the sources that require additional subscription (sorry Washington Post). Did you know if you are reading a story in Safari that has a paywall, but that source is available in News+ you can click the share button and “Open in News” will take you to right to a version you can read?

      Exactly the same boat. Personal devices are Apple and the Apple one was offering so much more value than Spotify for my family
