He’s right, most people don’t install an OS. They use whatever it comes with.

You simply cant win. People make fun of Xbox fand Windows for having non sequential names, and iPhone gets berated for having a naming scheme that’s sensical, easy to follow and date

This is not sad. Progress is progress.

Good on EU to force their hand, we should be cheering for regulatory agencies making life better for consumers.

I have tried all of the ones on Android.

Wefwef / Voyager is extremely impressive for what it is - webapp

However it and all of the other android apps glitch a lot. I’m on a pixel 7 pro so it’s not a legacy hardware issue either

Sync is by far the best app by a large margin. Everything has a high degree of polish. UX design is perfect, though I may be biased since I’ve been using it for reddit for the past decade.

Sync only has ads on the post pages, may be once every 10-15 posts. No ads on the comment page. Honestly it’s got the little Google ads that are not a big deal at all

If you’d like you can remove ads for $30 but honestly it’s not a big enough issue at all

Back gesture / design

Whatsapp portability. Last time I checked Whatsapp data couldn’t be moved to Android. I have a decade of chat history id like to preserve.

Integration with Google Photos. I am not switching to icloud or any other. Google Photos is just way too good. I can even search photos with text!

Notification system. I’m not entirely happy with how android does it, but apple does it worse.

Charging port. All my cables are USB C that charge both my phone and iPad. I’m not thrilled about getting 3 more chargers and cables.

App prices. Android has great KeePass clients for cheap / free. I use strongbox on my iPad which is like $30 a year
