Is not looking bad more valuable than the effort involved in one or both of you learning iOS?
You can’t seriously argue iOS is harder to learn over the myriad of android oses and their frequent updates
I'm not arguing that? I'm acknowledging that learning any new software takes some level of effort. Nice straw man though!
That’s not what strawman is but okay lmao.
Anywho, and realigning the conversation away from being passive aggressive… (I don’t miss Reddit do you?)
You specifically asked if returning a gift (tacky by many peoples standards) was worth learning a new (simpler) OS. Of course it is, not to mention the myriad of other reasons including security and privacy which you conveniently left out when posing an ultimatum of sorts.
Your reading comprehension needs work. Have a nice day.
Not surprised you ended the convo with an insult.
Hope you find out what you’re so mad at life and I mean that.
Recently, I've been watching a bunch of "an Android user switched to iPhone" and "an iPhone user switched to Android" type of videos.
From what I can tell, iOS is, in fact, harder to adapt to, compared to Android.
Even tech-savvy guys like Marques outright say that "unlike Android, it's very easy to forget how to use iPhones" (not an exact quote, but similar meaning).
You know you bring up a good point, I was mainly thinking about the settings app when I had commented that.
There are lots of “gestures” that most android users aren’t used to but I don’t think they’re particularly “hard” to pick up, but there is definitely “more” to pickup. Ultimately, my reason from switching over from only Android to apple were the invisible notification bugs that I was plagued by for 2 different Samsung phones, and the security vulns in android. Then again, these days, apple is starting to pick up more and more nasty vulns. Not sure how Android OSes have been keeping along
