This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I will give him credit he turned computers and phones into fashion accessories. He is closer to Coco Chanel than any tech visionary. If you think about it his methods were closer to QAnon or flat earth people. You can sell some people anything if you can convince them they are better than other people if they follow you. I am still salty about him overshadowed Dennis Richie's passing who was a real tech visionary.
Steve Jobs, Edison, Elon are all similar to me as they used smart people and took most of the credit. Westinghouse at least for the time treated his employees above average.
Steve Jobs a fascist? Like Vichy collaborator and Nazi spy Coco Chanel?
Edit not defending Steve jobs over here
Considering how much control Apple tries to exert over how you use your devices that does seem pretty close to the truth.
Apple's shitty software isn't the problem. Literally everything online is collected. Why wouldn't they? How much do you think this comment costs outside the fediverse? And fuck Apple, too you're right
