ehh, they're close, personally smythe edges cremnob out b/c homophobia but i can see the argument for cremnob being worse purely out of obnoxiousness

Cremnob is serious but in an insincere way because he knows that we know that he stands to gain if people like Apple products because of all of his Icahn asslicking. so when he posts about apple, it's all in his gimmick to simply be saying 'make me richer fuckos'.

Smythe says he likes android and google products, and that's it.

the two aren't even comparable.

This isn't true. YOSPOSers are trendsetters; others look to YOSPOS for social proof about the coolest and best products with the worthiest operating systems.

I have been waiting for like 6 years now to find a usable Python to JS compiler (tried and failed at pyjs, pyjamas, a few others). I've actively considered contributing to such OSS projects as they're a major pain point.

The trouble is to make meaningful contributions I'd have to actually learn javascript, and gently caress that
