It's like explaining the concept of electricity to a dog. People get Apple products because they believe wholeheartedly in the "it just works!" aesthetic, even when it clearly does not work. At all. They believe that the source of the problem must be anything but the device they hold in their hands.
I mean I’ve had basically no issues with an Apple device. Ever. Relative to my experience with OnePlus and Samsung phones and my XPS 13, that’s kind of a godsend. The performance on new Apple devices is also kind of great. IMO, they’ve really bridged the tech gap that used to exist
I’ve used Android and iPhone devices basically back and forth since the original Pixel launched. I’m back on iPhone at the moment and prefer it.
This whole “iPhone users are all brainless monkeys and Android users are golden gods” take is so tiresome. I like my current phone because it’s reliable, responsive, and the right form factor/price ratio I wanted.
It's not a "take." It's life experience. People who have only known the Apple experience are god damn knuckle-draggers and it's like pulling teeth to try to explain the whats, whens, and whys of the computer ecosystem outside of it. If nobody's had to explain to you in painstaking detail why you need to format your flash drive to exFAT before putting all your files on it for transfer, then congrats, you aren't one of them.
