With freedom comes comfort

lol, tell me that when you use a banking app outside the Google play services

Freedom [to install your own OS on a mobile device] for sure won’t bring me any comfort, and in fact it’s something I don’t care about.

Beside, it’s a naive take: Apple doesn’t force you to buy its phones so you can just go wherever. And I doubt most people who buy an android do so for the freedom to install their own OS

Never said you were wrong lol

If you value freedom over comfort, then obviously an iPhone doesn’t cut it

Inability to self-repair. Apple made it harder on purpose.

Can you repair android phone nowadays? Afaik, they are just as hard as apple

Clipboard and files sharing is still a joke. It works, but is uncomfortable as fuck.

Never had a problem

No easy & free way to sideload apps.

this should come before March 2024

Overpriced smartphones & gadgets.

True for the gadgets, smartphones are just in line with other android phones but at least the phone is supported for 5-6 years and it doesn’t go to shit after a few years of use

Shitty media format support.

Preach.

Buying an Apple device means I would literally support anti-consumer company with shitty behavior towards its users

Then buy no phone and remove google, etc. For a computer, buy a System76 et similia -but do not use Nvidia/AMD/intel GPU/CPU; no Samsung for SSD, no Intel network card etc.

Apple wallet does not support discount cards.

But you can?Maybe it’s new, idk

Can’t simply upload & download files from my PC (both Windows & Linux).

True. I use iCloud webApp on Linux or transfer the files on Mega

No proper files management.

It works for the most basic use cases

No ability to install 3rd party OS.

True, but on the other hand iOS is the reason you would buy an iPhone. I’m a power user on desktop but I can’t be bothered on mobile: back when I had an android, I used the stock apps too and never did anything “”“weird”“”. I’m a desktop user throughout, so if I have to do anything I will just use my PC instead of relying on my phone

– That said, if you don’t mind paying:

• try protonMail, there is the auto import and forward for gmail;
• MEGA has a sync feature for the photos. I use it but on iOS it’s not that great, for example the photos never get deleted but just uploaded;

try with apple

Sorry, please don’t take this as an attack. It’s just that I’m so tired of that lame joke.

I tried to present this as an observation. When filing a bug report (which I tried to emulate here), you have to take into account the distro, as it may influence the behavior of the software in question. Namely here Firefox.

Now, does that make you laugh? Good, laugh about it. But please think about it in this context. You are laughing about a personal choice. Prejudice is taking hold of your mind. You’re turning someone’s choice into a strawman, easy to be laughed at just because.

It’s a bit like attacking vegans. Now it’s not about this or that person and their choice. They’re evened out, ridiculed, just because it’s memetic to do so. The same with Arch users, so it seems.

I don’t use Arch btw. There’s no btw because I don’t care about that. This just reminds me of how certain groups always have to hear the same old tired jokes about them, just because, individually, everyone telling those jokes feels it’s so clever to do so.

Sorry. I think we can do better than this here at Lemmy. Again, this is not an attack. Perhaps just a reminder.

that’s how instagram, Facebook etc became a walled activityPub, where each group/feed is its own instance that the user can comfortably spawn!

“Well no problem, they can’t run without root privileges!” -/home left the game

I don’t think it would fix any of its faults tho
