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.

What about the need to tell others how to and what to discuss in their free time with their social circle? Can I do that?

  • be me
  • browsing lemmy
  • see meme about how one phone bad other good
  • get PTSD from having to hear about it for 15 years
  • stupidly go into comments and read more people arguing about which phone good
  • have flashback
  • On the sales floor in 2010
  • A grown man is telling me I need to pull an iPhone 4 from my ass and sell it to him or he'll burn my house down
  • snap back to reality (moms spaghetti)
  • comment saying everyone should just get over the whole phone thing
  • People argue more and tell me I should let people discuss things
  • flashback to when a grown woman cried and told me I ruined her life because they were out of the specific color of iPhone 5 she wanted while her boyfriend kept literally screaming at her that Android is better and she's an idiot for getting an iPhone anyway.
  • make a stupid fake greentext comment to heal the pain
