Since a lot of folks sort by “all” on Lemmy, popular posts get overwhelmed by people who don’t daily drive operating systems like iOS or MacOS.
I like outside perspectives and all, but when the majority of the “community” discussion is coming from people who aren’t even using these products, it is pretty hard to have informed conversations.
Moreover, I feel like this type of engagement creates a lot of threads that get pretty combative and catty. They’re often started by people who are trying to argue and convince iOS / MacOS users that they’ve picked the wrong side of the fence.
Anyone else feel me on this? I imagine this is a problem for other communities on Lemmy as well.
that’s actually a good point.
My wife recently started using an iPhone mini because she likes the size and on android there is nothing in that area, but she sometimes criticizes things that really make me believe she’s trolling me.
But then I realize that she’s just used to a, at least for her, better function or interaction done in her old android phone. And if she explains it to me I actually have to agree and wonder why apple’s solution is so strange.
What kinds of thing, as a matter of interest
Being unable to clear app data is a major pain daily. Requires uninstalling/reinstalling.
True. On the plus side, at least you can delete apps.
Unless it’s one you can’t, looking at you iCloud.
Homescreen customization, volume controls, easy accessible settings, how to get rid of notifications and it’s stacking, the weather app, the whole keyboard and spell checker, which is really just awful on iOS and lot of other smaller things.
Thanks for a good answer. My opinion of the weather app is it’s pretty awesome, however
Does it show you the actual weather, because here in Germany it’s wrong most of the time.
Interesting. I’ve used it in UK, Australia and France and have found it by far the most accurate compared with BBC Weather or the Met Office app. If I’m camping and it tells me it’s going to rain in 10 minutes it’s worth listening to
