    TLDW, better cuz customizable, more privacy for power users, alternative operating systems.

    More features sure, but if you value simplicity and dislike customization, apple is better.

    It’s all subjective imo.

    I like android but i understand apple’s design philosophy.

      I was a die-hard Android fan since I think froyo. But got tired of either having to find a device with an active custom ROM scene, or deal with my phone manufacturer abandoning my device’s updates after 18-24 months.

      I had to get an iPad and MacBook for work and ended up replacing my Motorola Z4 with an iPhone 14 Pro last year. Other than 1 app I would like to give a custom notification, I have encountered no real issues.

      And then Apple ships with Shortcuts, which can do a ton of stuff with pretty basic building blocks. It’s very un-Apple really.
