Nobody uses iPhones to be flashy and proud of them… only an android user would say this 🤣
Apple has created a genuinely good experience and has a lot of good privacy features like browsing through relays, blocking trackers etc … there’s a lot of great UX especially for backup and restore convenience, family accounts etc. open source OS doesn’t have much if any of this - and the features they do have tend to be tedious and complex.
The photo location feature is definitely a huge fail. Not even going to defend that. My hope is that they fix this asap and stop don’t this kind of nonsense. It ruins their brand.
I don’t know anything about Siri recordings and I highly doubt any of this is true- it would be a huge breach of privacy. But, I also don’t use Siri, never have, and never plan on it.
I also have a degoogled android and frankly the UX sucks. It’s passable but far from ideal. Google in general produces shit designs including material design. But, I still use that phone and I definitely like the open ethos over apples closed ecosystem.
I don’t know why people get up in arms over cloud backups. No one should be storing any sensitive photos in the first place … the backups are convenient - even though they tie you into a subscription. As a rule of thumb I just don’t take any photos that I would not be willing to show to someone casually - like an acquaintance.
