Considering your rude name calling and the fact that you totally skirted the crux of the issue by downplaying and muddying my argument, I too think we can end this one sided conversation.
Good luck with your chronic inability to conduct yourself in any manner short of rude, disrespectful, and condensing towards others of your own species.
While I appreciate your view, I have to disagree.
Becoming a sharer means more responsibilities, like keeping things up to date constantly. Get stuck in the hospital? Guess what? That new patch you automatically downloaded and applied? Turns out it opened up a new avenue and your IP address got hit by a random scan from some server hosting in Germany and was exploited to do xyz.
I’m all for self hosting, but not without serious warnings to new sysadmins. It’s just not for everyone, for one reason or another.
I think trying to deny or downplay that is negligent and harmful to what Lemmy and other self-hosting enthusiasts would want for their community/friends.
Some sauce for the hungry!

Anytime you switch from consumer to sharer, you run some heavier risks.
Plex should be a cautionary tale
You know you bring up a good point, I was mainly thinking about the settings app when I had commented that.
There are lots of “gestures” that most android users aren’t used to but I don’t think they’re particularly “hard” to pick up, but there is definitely “more” to pickup. Ultimately, my reason from switching over from only Android to apple were the invisible notification bugs that I was plagued by for 2 different Samsung phones, and the security vulns in android. Then again, these days, apple is starting to pick up more and more nasty vulns. Not sure how Android OSes have been keeping along
Not surprised you ended the convo with an insult.
Hope you find out what you’re so mad at life and I mean that.
That’s not what strawman is but okay lmao.
Anywho, and realigning the conversation away from being passive aggressive… (I don’t miss Reddit do you?)
You specifically asked if returning a gift (tacky by many peoples standards) was worth learning a new (simpler) OS. Of course it is, not to mention the myriad of other reasons including security and privacy which you conveniently left out when posing an ultimatum of sorts.
You can’t seriously argue iOS is harder to learn over the myriad of android oses and their frequent updates
Because we have yet to kill off the idea that
“my group is the best and perfect because I’m in it”
They’re outside though
In the public sphere
Where anyone is allowed to record you
I actually was comparing these two also so long ago! Miss u crunchie
