Real question. I would like to know what drives you to hate Apple? (In terms of privacy of course because in terms of price it’s another story).

    I’ve literally experienced this first hand. At least three times I’ve been told that I should get an iPhone when I pointed this out. You’re giving people way too much credit for being rational

    Hey that video you sent me is tiny. I can’t even tell what’s going on

    Dude when are you going to get an iPhone? iMessage works great. Janky Android phones can’t even receive videos?

    Wouldn’t surprise me at all if they’d hired psychologists to figure out the best way to make conversations like that happen

      I have no doubt about the part where iPhone fans waste no opportunity to tell someone else they should get an iPhone. It’s the other side of the argument that falls flat: Alice receives video from Charlie that’s perfectly fine, but Bob’s iPhone sends a pixelated mess, and Bob says the iPhone is better?
