Ryan: Nobody wants to run Android over an iPhone, they just either hate Apple so much its their only option […] or they can’t get their hands on [… garbled]
I wonder what Ryan is vaping, because this idea is completely insane:
- Android has 70% global market share
- Only deep techies are even interested in Applpolitics to the point where they even know that “iPhone is bad because Apple is bad” is an idea, and these people are a niche of a niche
So the claim is that 70% of the world population want to buy iPhones but are too resource limited that they have to choose Android - that is a dumb rhetoric that is blatantly false.
I know that the Android hate runs deep in DL, but this was ridiculous. There are many people that choose Android because it has many advantages. Its true that iOS has also many advantages, specifically around limiting what non-system applications can do (Android has a lot less “only system apps can do that” features), so if this is a positive point in your book, iOS may look better - but completely disregarding all the people that have a different value function than you and informatively choose an option you wouldn’t - when your opinion is clearly unpopular (i.e. more people than not are of the other opinion), that is weird.
I would appreciate if in the future you’d turn down the Android hate a smidgen and try to be more realistic and less inflammatory when discussing Android vs iOS
