Lack of access to the file system? What are you talking about?

[–] jadedwench@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I think they mean the iPhone. I love my MPB, but I still have no interest in iPhones due to lack of filesystem access, interface for the deranged, and not being able to customize it the way I want.

I still don’t know what that means. You can access the filesystem. You can even install a terminal if you want. And if that isn’t enough you can always jailbreak.

you cannot use an app to browse the entire filesystem, every app has its own space and can't access other apps spaces. Even with jailbroken devices there are filesystem limitations related to how they've designed it.
