Lineage (privacy focused) & e/os (+de-googled) android is the way
Even supports like 2013(?) Phones with new security updates
At least a lot of phones that dont get software support anymore still have very good hardware
How so? I went from Android to iPhone and one of the biggest reasons I kept it was the lack of consumer-hostile intrusive bullshit that seems to be everywhere on Google and Samsung products.
Again, what are you basing that on? Many websites, games, etc. that had traditionally only been accessible on a desktop/laptop were already primarily using ads for monetization at that point (I should know, I was using a lot of them). Blaming Apple for simply making the first handheld devices capable of running similar software makes absolutely zero sense.
adware was definitely not the norm before smartphones. I’m not talking about websites, I’m talking about applications. when were games using ads for monetization?
Well, it was the norm for websites, why would anyone expect it to not transfer over to every other conceivable platform like it has today? The fact that Apple made the first device that allowed people to put adware on a device in your pocket is pure happenstance, and I’m not even sure how true that is given the existence of Blackberry and early Windows Mobile devices.
That said, have you ever heard of WildTangent? Because they’ve been around for a loooong time, and were really attractive to poor and stupid kids like me that really started using the internet circa 2005 and wanted to play computer games.
Sucksung customers, iirc, at least have an option to unlock the bootloader and install a custom ROM that doesn’t phone corporates whatsoever. Iphones, tho, will always phone crapple, so that’s a questionable choice as well.
This is why iPhone is better, bros :)

you know the iphone basically started this whole shit, right?
IPhone doesn’t have this “feature”
i meant using making adware the default form of software.

by making the iphone. ads were not the primary source of revenue for applications before that.

“I blame RCA for television ads. If they hadn’t made the first mass-market television set, we wouldn’t have TV ads interrupting my morning cartoons!”

If ya say so

Hahahahhahahha no, iPhone isn’t better.
Apple waits for android to cop the shit, then they do the same. Won’t be long untill they’re pushing the same thing to you iPhone people.
You left out Apple’s strongest point: and afterwards claiming they invented it.
Nahhh this is never gonna be on iPhone
Hahah, okie dokie then.
