RULES

While this is s community focused on Android, some of us have devices from the Android, Apple, Windows and Linux worlds, etc. We may prefer Android, but overzealous and obsessive adherence to Android as some sort of infallible platform won't be tolerated long here.

That said, being critical of brands is fine. Android is frustrating in some ways, just like iOS and so forth. Let's be upfront about that.

Be thoughtful and helpful, even with 'stupid' questions. Otherwise, as ya mama said, say nothing at all. The world won't be made better or worse by snarky dudes schooling naive newcomers on Lemmy.

I tried ios/ipados devices in the past. I always come to a point the limitations of the system annoyed me so much. Sometimes it's the not accesible nfc reader. Somertimes the garbade filesystem and sometimes i wasn't able to open a file from the app i want because of different reasons. I haven't used it for years, but i think the OS is terrible for someone that want to use file, hardware or any process like i the person is used to it or want to use.

Yep, this is how I feel too. There are things I like about iOS, things I think it does better than Android, but I'd still take Android any day of the week.
