I know people prefer to complain instead of act, but what is something people don't like but has an alternative?

iPhones. Love my Pixel and I don't care how much my co-workers bitch about bubble colors.

Went back to android with the first pixel. After five different phones (microphones and speakers kept breaking) I went back to iPhone.

This is the same thing that happens with Windows and Mac. Your issue was hardware; you could have tried any of the other manufacturers who make Android phones. It's like saying you stick with Mac because you don't like Dell - there are other hardware brands who use the same operating system.

As I mentioned elsewhere - this was google’s FLAGSHIP phone. The other big hardware manufacturer for android is Samsung - I’ve had plenty of their products (including a phone) and have not had good experiences.

As for your other comparison, I actually use Mac because after 7 years my MacBook runs like the day I bought it whereas the 4-year-old Lenovo l have takes about 15 minutes to boot and struggles to open Word.
