Genius Bar reservations are pointless...
I scheduled an appointment for my crackling AirPod Pros at the Apple Store in Cincinnati after customer service told me they couldn’t help me and I had to either send them in for service (and have them put a hold on my credit card for the retail price) or take them into a store. I waited a week to finally get a reservation, which I scheduled for the 3:30-3:45 check-in time, and now at 3:57 I am still the 6th person in line and have been waiting since 3:29. So what is the point of making a reservation? There’s people in front of me who had a later time slot so why do they get to go ahead of me?
I know, first world problems, but it’s just silly to even make people waste the time to make the appt when they’re not even going to follow their own appt schedule.

Extremely minor typo on Apple.com that has been overlooked for months
For some reason, the English Hong Kong support page for iPhone display repairs lists the iPhone 11 Pro as “Phone 11 Pro”.
The weird part is that it’s been there since last May, and was seemingly introduced by a layout redesign. It gets even weirder when you realize that the error wasn’t fixed when they updated it for the iPhone 12.

LPT: Siri too quiet? Ask Siri!
A week ago I replaced my iPhone to a brand-new one, where "hey Siri" is actually useful, correctly understanding my impaired speech every time and without slowing down everything else, but I wasn't able to find out why it's so quiet, despite both media and alarm volumes set to max. Here lies the greatest strength and weakness of Siri:
"Hey Siri, why are you so quiet?" will set media volume to zero
"Hey Siri, where do I set your volume?" will enable you to change Siri's volume using voice

Unpopular Opinion, I actually don’t want more I/O than 4 Thunderbolt Ports
I personally love the minimalistic approach Apple has taken for the past couple of years. While I do believe 2 USB-C ports for any laptop of any price point is unacceptable, I’ve been very pleased with my 4 port MacBook 16”. I tend to use a one cable setup with a thunderbolt dock which can drive basically everything, a display, ssds, harddrives, pass through chargering, midi keyboard, headphones, Ethernet, thunderbolt daisy chaining, and then an extra 3USB-C ports on the MacBook for more. Ik thunderbolt docks can get expensive, so it can be replaced with a $40 dongle which has nearly all these functions others than thunderbolt. So why not add more ports?
Looking back at all the pre-2016 models, I wasn’t a fan of how it looked. Ik it sounds stupid, but I feel like I really dig the minimal look that only 4 identical USB-C ports on the sides have. And if you are a professional that doesn’t think the “pro” (non-m1 models rn) models don’t have enough I/O, chances are you probably already have dongles. Or even a Thunderbolt dock to route all your devices through one or 2 cables because the additional I/O that Apple might add wouldn’t be enough for you anyways.
TLDR: I feel like Thudnerbolt and USB-C is more matured accessible now more than ever, to the point where I do not even need any more I/O than 4 Thunderbolt ports.
This is all MY experience and what I IMAGINE is other’s experiences. Do you guys have similar or different experiences? Do yall still feel like more I/O is necessary for your workflow?
