Lemmy is a clean slate. Let’s leave the Android/iOS butthurt shit on Reddit for as long as we can.
Please, I’m iOS user but I enjoy reading advances of android because both systems push each other to be better. We don’t need toxic BS here too.
Exactly. I use both along with macOS, Windows, Linux. All have their pros and cons and all work well. Most of the rant comments are just BS.
I've had bot android and iOS over the years. Love them both for their own reasons. Currently rocking a pixel 7.
Interesting, so windows vs mac os didn't cause a flame war but Android vs IOS does.
Possibly because the cost for entry to macOS is higher than with iOS. Most people are able to run a Windows computer at very little cost, and will never have any interaction with a Mac. Meanwhile, iPhones and Android phones are (broadly) on a par in terms of cost.
I will say though, speaking as someone who's used Macs since 2007, as much as I'm no fan of how Windows works, I won't give anyone shit for doing so. But I used to get quite a bit of vitriol for my choice of computer.
Meanwhile, iPhones and Android phones are (broadly) on a par in terms of cost. This is only true if talking about mid-high end phones (and probably only high-end), you can get really cheap Android phones, incredibly cheaper than Iphones.
Many people just have phones now.
It's always interesting to see people turn something as universal as a phone into a competition.
If you're willing to spend the money, you can make yourself look silly by spending thousands on either one.
Phones have become such a staple of modern existence, it's about the same as wearing shoes.
Shit. I just realized they turn shoes into that, too
Sneakerheads are a whole different breed
Because nobody has windows user as a core part of their identity.
I was gonna comment that this exact post was made a few days ago with the only difference being Mac vs Windows instead. Seems you're already aware, and you're just farming. Nice.
the windows vs mac shit is also toxic nonsense and you know it.
Mac is genuinely a better experience. I say that as a user, as a dev, as someone who likes to throw their laptop in a backpack and not have to worry about the charger. I like the Linux-lite os, I like the screens, I like the universally premium feel to their chassis.
But damn, have Macs gotten ridiculously overpriced. Paying 150% for something you can count on to be more polished? Fine. It's premium
But paying triple? I'd rather learn to tunnel into a desktop through vscode and get something thin, nice looking, and inexpensive enough to replace (even if the thermal properties are horrendous)
The clean slate, wipes your record clean. Cleeean as a clean slate
