How is it not natural to want a status symbol? However I agree that companies abuse that to gain power and profit, I’m not questioning that.

It may be natural to want a status symbol (although that drive probably varies wildly between individuals), but I find it sad that having an iPhone is equated to status.

“Look at me in my expensive walled garden!”

Disclaimer: I also dislike Google’s business practices in different ways

I feel you. I dream of the day Linux phones become a thing, but they are not ready yet, although great progress is being made.
