I would agree a few years ago. However, when everyone stops supporting their hardware after 2 years, and you see apple supporting it for 4,5,6 years, it makes you question who’s really here for wanting you to “buy new stuff”.

That article will be really helpful as it isn’t my first language so the thought/text conversion works a bit differently for me. Thank you!
Not true, sorry. Using self hosted cloud and it works perfectly.
I find the keyboard much better than gboard. I don’t use autocorrect tho.
Stock apps are one of the things that kept me. I didn’t have to search the play store for an app, it was already there. I use imap for mail, and the mail app is the best app i ever used on any mobile device. Paid apps included.
There is adblock for safari
Background sync works a lot better for me than on Android. I never have to worry about syncing photos or files, while on Android it would stop and i wouldn’t notice for weeks that my photos disn’t sync.
Apps are more expensive, but better as well. There are apps that are the same as on Android but pricier on iOS, i agree there.
I don’t use a filesystem on any computer, or should i say built-in storage. Everything is connected to my home server and that part works as intended.
For that part, the Apple website has an actual user documentation for iOS and MacOS and it’s good. Not the best, but far better than anything available for Android.
You have to actually give it a try. It isn’t like android. It requiers some adaptation. That said, i understand if someone found their OS of choice and doesn’t consider anything else, i just never was in that postition with Android.
Have you tried WiFiMan?
I would agree but then again i tried to repair some other brands hardware and it was even more difficult. At least with apple you know what to expect. Try to repair an Acer laptop in the EU, good luck with the local “official” repair guys
How am i locked in? To what? My phone talks perfectly fine to my other computers as well. It just has some nifty features with the Mac. I have a lot of “same brand” tech that doesn’t have any distinguishable features.
Is it really? Air costs as much as a HP Envy
If you’re in the market for a thin and light laptop none of them will have user replaceable parts
Whole point of the post is to get opinions from other people. There is no story, just my general observations about the software/hardware
Noted. Pushed twice on edit. Took some skill to find the return button tho.
I would love to try a Pixel, unfortunately it’s not sold in my area and i wouldn’t have any support if something went bad with it. The best phone i had was a Nokia, and it was the phone with the worst hardware, but the stock Android experience was beautiful.
