Things like the cool new lemmy apps and the fold phones like the Galaxy Z Flip make me really want to change but it’s tough.
Any so much of a mention of leaving iOS for android around my normie friends or family leads to weirdly aggressive responses. They want to by able to react my messages and rename the group chats in their normie iMessage. They want to be able to stalk me with their normie Find My Friends app. They react like taking that away from them is basically stabbing them in the back. It’s like I just told a hardcore Trump supporter that Biden is #1 to their face. Normies are brainwashed.
It feels like I’m trying to leave a cult. It’s like I’m trying to leave the Mormon religion. It’s like I’m trying to get off drugs when everyone I know uses.
I just want you techies to know I’m jealous of your freedom. Maybe one of these days I can get clean.
Oh, what’s a better word to describe someone who is super mainstream and only likes something if other people like it or they were told to like it?
Average? Normal?
That isn’t a very useful way to categorize people, almost everyone is very much normal including yourself.
Wanting a different phone isn’t an expression of individuality, it’s just a phone. If you wanna be real quirky and novel, don’t use one at all (YMMV)
I really don’t see what the problem is, the other commenter is overreacting
Yea, I was just trying to vent my frustrations and joke around while I look at this Galaxy Z Flip for the 9th time. Tough crowd, I don’t even use 4chan. Maybe I should stick with iOS, at least my iPhone cult friends have chill rofl (unless you are talking about leaving iOS).
