I used to be an edgy winfag who joked about his death all the time, but I never really thought about the real impact he left. Everything just seems so..empty in his absence. I just see uninspired design after uninspired design trying to copy each other over and over again with minor bullshit changes each time.
OG Jobs really just brings me back to a simpler time. Back when I was in middle school we had those shiny colorful transparent imacs and thought they were the coolest most futuristic shit ever invented. They had more than just style, they had spirit. Steve Jobs was like the Willy Wonka of computers, and without that childlike 90s-00a wonder, we're at a loss for where to go next.
Jobs' obsession and hard manners shaped modern computing, bringing computers to the point of having more casual, human applications, outside the corporate environment.
He indeed left a big part empty: The part he always filled while alive, pushing computers off their "moral boundaries" in the tech ecosystem. And mostly the fact that he couldn't care less about some half assed engineer or developer's opinion. They didn't make the dream with him, they were gone.

I miss him. Wasn't into Mac till mid 2000s. I miss how they use to have an ATI or Nvidia video card and not Intel shit.
Nathaniel Powell
I'm glad he's dead, but I'm not glad he's gone.
Jose Cook
He made computers more accessible for normies.
I relish the thought of him burning in hell.
Brody Wilson
Fuck you. He's the technology Prometheus. Gave the fire of tech to the normies and they've been burning everything ever since. We have so much more now than we did 20 years ago but somehow everything is worse.
David Lewis
I'm glad he's dead, and I'm glad he's gone.
Levi Nelson
No. Why would I miss someone I never met?

>destroys the internet by making it usable for the dumb masses
I hope someone invents a time machine just to kill him in 2004
