Flexing with phones is weird af. People spend 1000 bucks on a phone and do the same shit that a phone for the quarter of the price can do.
Too poor to flex with sports cars, gotta go into debt to flex with phone
Using money to flex at all is dumb. While everyone’s out here flexing, I’ll actually be retiring at some point.
Hey now, some of us are too poor to flex or retire, stop flexing on us /s

You know it’s funny, I use android and I’ve never seen a single green bubble. Weird, huh?
My bubbles are purple and gray!
Mine match whatever colors my screen background is. They change whenever I change the background.
My bubbles can be any color I want them to be and I change them weekly according to my mood.
‘course, people would get over color pretty quickly.
By default with no prior coordination, iPhonies expect:
- High-quality photos/videos
- Renamable group chats
- Typing indicators
- Read receipts
- One-click group audio/video calls
- Shared names & contact photos
- Stickers
- Screen sharing
- Message reactions (good improvement, Android, here)
They can also expect:
- Use over WiFi, free internationally
- Apple Pay & iMessage app integration
- Messaging from other devices or via voice
- Encryption
If you’re not in North America, remember, we haven’t all agreed it’s easy to use What’sZuck or secure to use Signal. Convincing users to adopt a particular messenger is work for the more technical, the more opinionated - and whoever convinced you to download one app may not have convinced that girl at the bar to download the same one.
Apple is aware kids get left out of group chats in the US, but lets them get bullied for profit. Support next-generation interoperable messaging Tim! The collective time and mental power exerted on evaluating different messengers, remembering which group chat is on which platform, and on this debate must be staggering.
Me too cos who TF uses SMS in 2023?
This is just proof that amaricans will always see color
I don’t know what iPhone glass is but it feels like even if iPhone users are a minority, the only people I see with broken screens are iPhone users… A friend of mine even broke his screen the same day he bought his phone and just lived with it like that for a year…
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that some people who have iPhones as status symbols can’t afford to replace them if the screen breaks. Whereas someone who doesn’t care about brands can easily swap a broken Android for another budget phone.
And also replacing a screen on android phones doesn’t cost the full value of the phone again. But apple makes it so doing the repair on an iPhone you might as well just buy a new iPhone instead.
We’re all getting fucked by tech monopolies.
How about that?
Nothing to argue there, but I still prefer android over that iOS shit.
Company fanboys any sector are such cringe dipshits.
It took me far too long to realise that was a hoop earing and not a circle that the red arrow was pointing to that was meant to be showing me something… 😂😂
Sorry but I’m using a Sony which is known for being way overpriced
Same
Me with my moto g pure that I dipped in 24k gold.

Every commercial I see is companies giving iPhones away for free. It’s now at a point where I had to pay extra to avoid getting an iPhone.
Well at least my beat-up phone from 2018 runs mainline linux
I envy you! I also had a Samsung Galaxy Note II secondary phone running postmarketOS until fairly recently, but the experience was pretty unusable and I put free and open-source Android (AOSP) back on it approximately 1.5 months ago.
Yeah, about that… I never said it was exactly stable :) Although that may at least partly be due to me messing with mobile-nixos and not postmarket. So far the sound and mic have been acting a bit, but that’s probably due to misconfiguration on my part.
On the other hand, waydroid works pretty damn well, so I don’t really see the reason in flashing back android
I may be broke, but I’m proud of it, because your phone broke.
I’m always proud to tell people I bought a refurbished flagship phone from 2 years ago at 1/8 the price (without mentioning price) when they see how good my pictures look. I’m currently rocking Google’s spyware known as the Pixel 7 pro.
Look into grapheneos, it has almost the same features as vanilla google android. The few things it lacks are google auto (i don’t drive), google pay (i don’t wanna pay shit anyway)
