As a person who has worked in telecom for over 15 years.....shhhhhhhhh.......

You like android better? Cool. You like IOS better? Cool. They do essentially the same thing in different ways with different pros and cons. What works best for one person may not be for someone else.

In 2024 if you're arguing on the internet (or perhaps worse, in real life) about which phone is better you need to take a step back, take a deep breath, and take an assessment of your priorities.

Also, because I love downvotes apparently, this also applies to windows/linux/mac OS. Unless I'm on my Mac like "Gee I sure wish this was more open source, if only there was an alternative." I don't need you telling me to switch to linux bro.

It's a relevant topic to talk about. You wrote so much yet said nothing except I don't like seeing people talk down to apple users. Which i agree with a little but people will talk about relevant things like smart phone choice whether you like it or not.

Also have you tried switching to linux?

It was more the fact that someone took the time to make a meme about it. Like, go outside. Also, perhaps, I'm a tad jaded since I remember this exact type of thing only it was Blackberry/Android/iPhone/Windows. It was more relevant back in the day when there were marked differences between the all the different mobile OS, but now it's basically the same thing different ways.

Also yes, I have several Linux computers that I mostly use as they are older machines so I drop linux on them for various projects or just to make the computer run better for web browsing and other simple tasks. I also have a Mac for making art and music. I primarily use my windows PC because I mostly game and work (using Microsoft 365) on it and that's the easiest solution. I honestly don't understand why everybody feels the need to bring up linux constantly around here. If you like linux that's cool, if it's relevant to the conversation, that's cool. But if I'm on a windows related thread asking about a windows issue it is rather annoying for someone to jump in and be like "jUsT uSe LiNuX" every 3 seconds.

In summation, if people get to complain about how other phone sucks I get to complain about how people complain about other phone sucking is bothersome to me.

You know, you're actually absolutely right. Keep up the good work!
