Absolutely hilarious. But I've heard MacBoys parrot this exact same line of propaganda for years now.
16GB are totally enough! Apple will manage my 20GB of required RAM in such a way that it'll fit in my 16GB (actually ~15)
I have not. As someone in the Mac community I can tell you that Apple enthusiasts are Apple’s harshest critics. They are the type of people who care a lot about details like this, and have been criticizing Apple for years on the amount of RAM in entry level systems, as well as the absolute rip-off prices they charge for RAM upgrades.
If they are rip-off prices and bad RAM, then why continue buying them? Doesn't that imply getting ripped off?
When I argued that for the money you shell out for a mac, you could get a machine with 1.5-2x the specs, the constant thing I heard was "yeah, but you can't compare a SoC with a normal laptop/PC". Then came the argument about RAM not mattering, CPU speed not mattering, and so on. It would be cheaper for companies to give devs linux machines than macs, but they don't want to hear it because macs are now the table tennis tables, pool tables, arcade machines, avocado toast, and "we're a family" of companies.

holy fuck i hate consumerism why don't you just kick me in the nuts instead of burning my eyes out like this
