THE reason why i use apple is because I'm not subjected to ads. Is there any point using apple anymore if they're going to inject ads? Holy shit, Time to go back to android if we're gonna get ads and instead pay less for a phone.

You can trade your iPhone with an Android user who figured if Google is going to force developer certifications for installing apps then there is no point in using Android over iPhone and they might as well switch.

...oooh, i sense a business opportunity for an intermediation platform: foneswapp.org, no wait, all electronics in general: eswapp.org, no wait, we can do like used consumer goods: swapp.org, now we're cooking with gas!..

...register a handful of TLDs, spend an afternoon vibe-coding a prototype, invite over some VCs, revolutionise commerce for the impending societal collapse, father maybe a few hundred children, found a new civilisation that lives in a dome, stay young forever until barbarians come and set fire to our home...

...great idea!..

Year of the Linux phone!

I was going to say the same thing.. there's no point to Google android anymore either. I guess we're all going to LineageOS.
