> Sure, but Apple's world is effectively a monoculture itself. If you don't buy into Apple and their ecosystem, the existence of those things is irrelevant.
Not in this context: Someone claimed above that the web browser market was a monoculture of only Google Chrome. Apple browsers has a large market share, so it's not a monoculture.
By that I mean is that in order to use Apple's software, you have to join Apple's entire ecosystem. That means it's not really an alternative if you otherwise find Apple's products unacceptable.
