The topic is about phones, and you said:

Gotta love android and IOS being utter dogshit.

If you are saying you started an offtopic conversation about Linux that had nothing to do with phones, and then, unrelated to your own comment, complained about Android and iOS even though your comment had nothing to do with phones, then... that sure is interesting.

no, we were talking about basic cybersecurity, or i suppose physical device security, which just happens to be relevant to phones because it turns out phones are dogshit at physical security. So i left a comment about how this is basically a solved problem on linux, because it's not actually that hard to just implement proper security.

I was complaining about android, because both me and the commenter i was responding to were talking about how awful security is on these devices, for no reason other than utter incompetence or forced inaction.

This isn't interesting, it's a basic conversational pattern, if you haven't spoken with enough people to realize that conversations just, shift sometimes, i feel bad for you.
