At least google sites recommending Chrome are free to use. Microsoft is forcing is it’s useless browser to an audience via an OS. Which they paid for. Two huge no-no’s.

Don’t forget the unrepairable Bluetooth in-ears.

They where still making pretty decent smartphones though. It’s a shame their update support was abysmal. That was the real deal breaker for me.

It’s not username based, it’s based on your phone number. I really don’t get what’s holding people in the US back to move on. Because these arguments don’t apply at all.

I think Snapchat is more a social media app than a messenger by the way.

Don’t be ignorant. There are a lot more options, safer, open and with more features than sms/iMessage.

It’s 2023. Why use SMS in the first place? The world except the US has moved on years ago.
