Ok honestly whats with people being all anti google and anti chromium but still being pro android? Android is google in the same way chromium is google. It doesnt matter if its not a google pixel or not google chrome, its still google. Is it just that you think apple is worse than google? Do you have a reason for thinking that, or is it just that its cool to hate apple? And im not saying apple is great morally upright corporation, but i dont think theyre worse than google. At least apple maps still says gulf of mexico

#i wanna clarify im talking about apple in the us #i know in other countries they’re insanely overpriced #dont get me wrong theyre overpriced here too. but not more than any flagship phone is overpriced #ive never heard an argument against apple that couldnt also be said against google other than -#‘theyre a fashion company not a technology company’#the only basis for that being that the specs dont look as good on paper #but like. yes apple has less ram but the os uses less ram #so theres actually MORE ram available to you to use cuz the os isnt using all of it #when i switched from android to apple like 11 years ago i was shocked how much MORE my phone could do #without overheating and crashing #yes you have to learn how to use the os and that takes time obviously #that doesnt mean the features arent there. you just dont know how to use them yet #every time ive seen someone new to apple complaining about features they no longer have -#ive been able to tell them how to do the thing theyre trying to do #and i dont even know ios that well anymore. i havent been keeping up with learning things after updates since i got my first one #my brother could tell you way more #the only feature of android that ive genuinely never found an ios equivalent for and i miss is the ease of changing different types of volum #but thats not that important #compared to everything else #i like apple cuz theyve kinda been spearheading the rainbow capitalism in regards to trans-ness #while google’s stuff (pinterest youtube etc) has been actively promoting terf and transphobic stuff my whole life #i know rainbow capitalism isnt great obviously but its better than the alternative #and other ways its better than the alternative politically #and its actually a better product imo
