2 days agoSadly many won’t care, but for those that do it removes one of the key differentiators. Plus it’s kind of hard to trust a company that has had such a wild change in values - Apple have at least been consistent.
Edit: I didn’t think it needed to be spelled out, but no I’m not suggesting Apple are trustworthy.
Sorta been answered but worth noting there’s more than one definition, and if the person you’re speaking to/arguing with aren’t using the same one then you’ll never agree because you’re debating different points.
One is the “socially aware” definition, and seems to be the one claimed by most on here. It means your eyes/mind are open etc.
Another refers to performative virtue signalling, where someone is desperately looking for something to make themselves appear socially aware / “awake”, regardless of their actual position on the matter, if they even have one. That is where the pejorative usage comes from.
If someone uses “woke” as an insult is likely they’re placing the target in the latter category.
