Yes, I’m the one in the group DM that turns the bubbles green, I’m sorry.

But other than that, I don’t hear many other reasons why people actually prefer iPhones over Androids. What other reasons are there?

    with it’s proprietary software, no one knows whether or not ios is good for privacy or not. it certainly sends data back to apple automatically, without user consent.

      Yeah. I added an addendum although I clearly did not format it properly.

      They claim to be about privacy and seem to consider it a first class concern or however you want to put it.

      I weighed the risks and the inconvenience of using a degoogled phone severely outweighs its utility for me.

      In an ideal world I could be using GrapheneOS but a lot of OSS still has some ways to go in terms of design and functionality.

      Also before the “HA GOTCHA GO SUPPORT THEM YOURSELF” etc etc, I financially support many open source projects and foundations and am working on sharpening my dev skills to contribute more.
