  • Maybe this isn’t contributing much, but I’m trying to put myself out here to keep the community active. I always would hesitate before commenting my opinion on reddit, lol.

    My job borders on the tech industry (environmental modelling, so we use a lot of the framework that programmers do but most of my work is environmental work), but I’ve always had a really great interest in tech and gaming.

    I had a couple of different Android phones, like I really tried - some LG phone but also a Samsung Galaxy S3 - and I felt like they aged quickly. If I installed one too many weird apps it would start running slow like the PCs I used to pirate on in the 2000s. That has literally never happened to me with an iPhone. The ease and seamlessness of messaging and facetiming with other iPhone users (80% of people in my life) is great enough that I can kind of shrug my shoulders and say ‘There’s no ethical consumption under capitalism anyways.’ Plus the seamlessness with the Apple Watch and being able to keep my phone in my bag and know if anything important comes up by looking at my wrist? Honestly has helped me kick the phone habit.

    I had a Mac for a while also, but ended up selling it when I felt so limited in the games I could play and apps I could use. I find that Apple’s computers are pretty worthless to me, but if I had the money to spend and wanted a reliable, fast browsing and general computing experience, I’m sure I would gladly spend the money on it. But this is coming from someone with a $3000 beast of a home machine lol
