You can include your phone specific model if you want.
I just got a Samsung Galaxy S23, switching from an iPhone 11, because I kinda fear that Apple might turn evil and start banning apps from the app store. I mean I knew about how restrictive iOS was but I kinda just justified it by the increased security that I perceived it to be. But recent events made me realize a corporation can turn from mildly annoying to full-on evil very quickly. With Android, I have the option of avoiding the Google Play Store if they start to do weird things with it. So that’s my story, what about you?
I’m a dev / data engineer. Often I hear the argument of, “but Android allows you to…”
I don’t want to. Doesn’t matter what the end of the sentence is, I don’t want to. I love tinkering, but not with my phone. :D
Same tbh. I’m a backend dev. I love tinkering. I have a desktop PC to tinker with, if I fuck up my Gentoo install, I’ll just boot into Windows or use my Macbook till I get it fixed. If I fuck up the software on my phone, I won’t be able to take phone calls for probably a couple of hours (if it’s a simple fuckup) to like half a day or more if I manage to fuck up the recovery or something.
Ends up being that you need a secondary phone to tinker with, but I have little use for two phones, so I don’t keep them around much, I’d rather let someone else use my old phones because I don’t usually break them.
