Some iPad users really should just use a Mac beardyguycreative.com
@Ddanielson Ha! Yeah, at the time I upgraded I probably could have kept on with the 2018 but I'm glad I did as it's been really nice having Stage Manager. And I put my iPad to full use 8+ hours a day taking advantage of the increased memory with apps like Affinity Publisher. For that alone it's worth it.
@Denny @ddanielson Such a great read, Denny, and it made me realize how much I still love my iPad. Despite its quirks—or even because of them—there’s a joy I get every time I pick it up and move to sit somewhere comfortable with this “slab of glass.” Is it perfect? Of course not, but nothing ever is. I’d like to think Apple hasn’t given up on the device either, even if some of the big tech names have.
Like you said, at the end of the day it comes down to using what’s best for your needs and requirements. Not meeting those doesn’t suddenly make it a bad device.
@pimoore Yeah, there's no way Apple will be giving up on it. They sell MILLIONS of them. A handful of disgruntled tech guys on the internet, no matter how magnified their voices are, will not likely drown out the fact that the vast majority of people actually enjoy using their iPads. Were you to quiz all of my family members about their iPads they would have no idea about all of the "problems" that their device has. 😂 Normal users just use the device. We tech enthusiasts tend to over analyze our tech and sadly, we kind of ruin it for ourselves. We put ourselves on the "what's the next cool thing" loop which inherently fosters dissatisfaction with what we have in front of us.
