I think he means Steve Apple... common mistake

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 8 points 8 months ago

He was the predecessor to Steve Careers.

My guess is that this is from the era around 2008-2010 where everyone was making “there’s an app for that” jokes.

Or their recent "iPhones save lives" thing they've been doing recently with the satellite connectivity.

[–] ursakhiin@beehaw.org 5 points 8 months ago

There's an app for that.

So many of my iPhone fan friends have said "Oh, you finally made the switch, you're going to love it" after I recently bought my first iPhone.

It's a phone. It did not magically transform my user experience. It's 95% similar to what I had on a Pixel. Better low-effort privacy. Better direct hardware access for music and video. Significantly more lag, app freezups, and fragility and some baffling user experience decisions.

I would switch back again, or not, doesn't matter.

I have an iPhone for work and a pixel that I use privately.

There's like one or two high quality apps on the iPhone that are amazing but that kinda sums up the positive aspects of the iPhone. I absolutely hate the user experience. Android is simply better at this.

But I do agree with you. They're just bloody phones. Do people really still give a shit? I'm actually pretty sick of these phones. The pixel 7 Pro is the first phone that works the way I want it to and I'd like to simply keep on using this phone for the next 30 years if possible because I don't want to spend any more money on these shitty rectangles.

I switched from iPhone to the Pixel a few years ago and I will not switch back. The iPhone feels so slow comparatively, the text selection and keyboard are awful, and good luck using one with your non-Mac desktop. Plus side-loading things like NewPipe kicks ass and I wouldn't want to give that up. But ultimately the best feature for me is on-device sub captions for any speech on your phone. Phone calls, music, YouTube, whatever, you can see captions for all of it. It's a godsend for people who are hard of hearing.

He left out the panel where he spends two weeks trying to recover his iCloud account

The left edge is RGB on my phone.

Do you have a screen protector on your phone?

That's probably what's giving the effect.
