Oh you mean the part of the op that person quotes waaaayyy up in their original comment.

Yeah. The question was why does the android software that interfaces with trackers only support airtags. If you’re making a piece of software to interface with a kind of hardware your first target should be the best, most popular one. Sometimes those will be different things, like with phone charging cables. In this case they’re one and the same. Airtags are the best, most popular tracker.

So the answer to the question “why does the android software for trackers only support airtags?” Is: “airtags are the best, most popular tracker.”

Yes, I’m referring to the start of the discussion, the part where if you want to claim any context, you need to be aware of.

And two, popular and best aren’t synonyms. In fact, pointing out how much better it is doest not answer the question. It answers why it’s most common. Being the most common is the answer.

But sure. Keep being a try hard.

I never said they were synonyms, just that the same thing is most popular and best sometimes and trackers are one of those times. After I said that I explained why that was the answer to the question almost exactly as the commenter you responded to did.

What are you trying to prove? I’m kinda confused…

The guy spammed a few threads talking about how great AirTags are and gave no context. Beyond that, that isn’t what his comment said. It didn’t even claim they were the most popular. You had to infer that on your own. I’m confused why you’re confused. Probably because you joined a conversation, made a dumbass accusation that no question was asked, and are now backpedaling to still look like anything you say makes sense.

This isn’t fruitful anymore. Enjoy defending people talking about how great Apple is unsolicited.
