I've noticed YouTube specifically has become more addictive, I never used to be one to sit and scroll for long durations before but I often catch myself spending way too long on shorts now

Even people or older generations seem to be getting sucked in nowadays

I can’t be arsed with wasting time to try to degoogle an android phone and keep my banking applications working.

Apple is good enough for me :)

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don’t touch google products or services, and fully agree.

Plus, iOS is fucking stellar. Every phone I’ve had from them is blazing fast after YEARS of NEVER REFORMATTING

(Posting from my XS Max that I’ve never reformatted lawl)

Yeah, I too noticed android phones usually go to shit after a few years. Even formatting doesn’t fix them entirely, and I never play games on mobile

Saaame. I loved my android phones before I switched over, but it’s soooo nice to have a phone that works smoothly for so long without fucking about with custom ROMs.

But maaaan this site fucking hates Apple hahaha
