Sooo bad

I can see why a lot of android people use emoticons insteadπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Aesthetically speaking, Android is a dumpster fire.

its crazy to me that even after 14 iterations of a software the rift in terms of aesthetics is this wide between android and iOS, I switched to android a month ago and for me(I'm quite technical) I'm happy, although I would be much happier if things looked better of course but I'm willing to compromise for the reasons why I switched. I don't see myself recommending this switch to anyone in my family anytime soon though given the amount of compromises currently

I use both, but more heavily on iOS. It’s probably impossible for Android to be more design-focused since it doesn’t really cater to that audience, either from a user or developer standpoint.

yeh everything has its strong and weak points I guess!

Apart from Italian white sausage, grilled

No weak points, absolutely zero.

Windows / Android = Computer

OSX / IOS = Toy / Fashion Accessory

iOS agree, osx has many use cases though.

OSX for artists

Windows for engineers and gamers

Linux for servers

nah man fuck windowsπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

gaming is getting really good on Linux now, macos and Linux are great for dev and Linux is great for servers. honestly I don't see any use case for windows other than the fact everyone already uses it. everything done on windows can be done on another OS

i didn't mean software engineering. i used to work in AutoCad and i had designed things for fun in SolidWorks. those kinds of CAD / Engineering programs are mostly for Windows.

the only problem is Windows is unable to switch to ARM chips and Intel X86/64 chips pull too much power for mobile devices.

i just built a desktop using Sapphire Rapids Overclockable Xeon and it pulls 180 watts at idle ... and i haven't even overclocked it yet ... maximum laptop battery allowed on airplane ( out of fire hazard considerations ) is 100 watt hours, so enough to run my new desktop for half an hour at idle with the screen off.

if Windows can't move to the more efficient ARM chips it might not make it long term. the reason Windows is struggling with the transition is that legacy software ( sometimes decades old ) is one of the main strengths of Windows.

Apple's control of their ecosystem allowed them to move to ARM which windows tried to do but failed. but Apple's more limited ecosystem is also why people use Windows.

double edged sword.

it's kind of like Nike vs New Balance

my New Balance shoes are Made in USA of Genuine Suede Leather, come in multiple widths, the most comfortable shoes i ever worn, been wearing them longer than any of my Nikes lasted ...

but the design is nothing to write home about ( at least they're black ) ...

and they aren't promoted by billionaire athletes ...

so everybody buys disposable Nikes made from plastic that only come in a single width, are equally uncomfortable on first day and last and only maybe 2 or 3 years before some kind of a bubble bursts ...

the point is few people care about substance - most only care about style, bling, perceived status ...
