I hope whoever Apple picks brings back the excitement to the company. Tim's great, but he's an ops guy at heart. Every single Apple event is "This is slightly better than the one before it".
Apple
A place for Apple news, rumors, and discussions.
"The successor knows the most vital priority to the company to Apple is the continuation of Watch bands."
“we have a long term plan in place for exponentially increasing SKUs every year”
Dear Investors: don't worry. It's a very detailed plan.
Apple doesn’t give a shit about investors
Promote the Eldest Boy.
I volunteer for the spot. I’ve been practicing my finger tip presses during zoom meetings for it.
I'm gonna be really bummed if the new CEO, by coincidence, doesn't have the name Johnny Appleseed.
Well we all know how Succession ended.
Tim: I would love to see Dua
Assistant, two hours later: Guess what? You’re now confirmed to go on interview with her, at her home, on her couch
Tim: A front row concert ticket is what I meant but this works too
Is it just me or does Apple feel like it’s heading in the complete opposite direction Steve Jobs would have taken it.
No, Steve's direction really wasnt THAT crazy in the 21st century Apple. It would be slightly different, the product stack would be simpler, but nothing revolutionary
Imo steve jobs would we hella proud of what apple has become today.
It will be Scott Forstall returning like the messiah
He wouldn't know the way back to Cupertino if he uses his version of apple maps
the only pick who would actually make me excited about apple’s future
Apple had two succesfull CEOs: Steve Jobs and Tim Cook.
Why did you write this
Let’s be honest, the largest stockholders (Vanguard, Blackrock, and Berkshire Hathaway) will choose whomever will generate the largest return for them. When Tim Cook leaves, I promise you that what little of Apple’s core values remain will be sacrificed on the alter of creating more value for shareholders.
It’ll be Jeff Williams, and Tim Cook’s enshittifaction of the product lines will probably continue to get worse with him at the helm.
There will only be one Tim Apple
Apple bout to drop the tiM2
King Tim III

Best comment in here tbh
Doesn’t really matter these days, these companies just need a face but you have zero impact or power as a CEO now.
I was angry when he became CEO after Steve died. Then realized I actually like this guy. I wish he stays. Even though I feel like we don’t need an Apple Car
It's amazing that OpenAI's board shit the bed so badly this past weekend that even Apple has to reassure people they have plans in place to not mess up major leadership changes.
Just toss jobs on the Golden Thone and we’re all good. May he guide us from the warp.
It’s going to be John Ternus.
Tim Cooked.
I mean, it makes sense.
Apple has more assets and revenue than most of the countries in the world.
Are they growing another CEO in the basement like that show Foundation?
Are we ready for the big return of Gil Amelio?
A sales and marketing guy will get put in charge and Steve will rise from his grave for vengeance.
Being inside a bigger corporation and getting some looks at succession planning, there really is A LOT of planning that goes into it. A surprising amount.
the succession plan is robot Steve jobs
