after 15 years, iOS has finally caught up with all the main android features, such as
- very mid ui design
- kinda floaty feeling
- unpolished vibe android itself has progressed little, although it is rapidly achieving feature parity with iOS on “locked down user hostility”. overall both ecosystems look very appealing, energetic, and healthy, for shareholders
I’m done with android (And surely never touched crapple to begin with).
I watched it slowly become “the cheaper iOS” and Samsung becoming “the android of apple”.
But the recent final proverbial nail was their most recent lockdown. Fuck you google. Fuck you since you dropped “don’t be evil” to become Satan itself. At least apple never tried to appear “open”.
Doesn’t it just need a 24 hour wait to unlock sideloading?
And how long before they remove that do you think?
Google’s reputation will tank if they remove it soon so it will take a long time before that will happen
“just”. If you have no problem with being treated like a child, on your own device, then yes. “Just 24hrs”. And btw…that’s 24hrs, FOR NOW. Testing if the resistance is even worth considering (which it won’t be).
Being treated like a child is subjective, however. And, superuser features are really not for everyone. Anyways, the best way to fight for this is being loud. The only reason Google gave the 24 hour unblock anyway was due to the community. And, if another person chooses Apple, let them be. Google should know what the differentiating factor Android has and blur the difference then just go buy an iPhone.
They’re boiling the android frog until it is no better than apple. Sailfish and Postmarket is the future.
Unfortunately, mobile banking apps are important today that you can’t just leave Android or iOS.
The bank apps work fine on graphene.
Yes, but not every bank app. Someone on another country might not have the choice.
Well it’s a chicken and egg problem, if everyone stays on android, Graphene won’t improve since companies won’t feel incentivised to go where the customers are.
