Personally, I buy protein powder even though I know the ingredients are actually too cheap to justify the price. But I’m too lazy, and the reward of a cold chocolate shake after working out makes me forget about the outrageous cost. It’s a little guilty pleasure I’ve come to terms with.

    Also you are the product from data collection, the device’s planned obsolescence/inability to be repaired, surcharges for in-iOS transactions, and so on, but I guess that’s not the exact framework of this question.

    Better. Than. Android.

      The majority of the planet disagrees with you. Also hello from GrapheneOS, which allows me to control my phone as I wish, unlike your precious iOS.

        Yeah, I just don’t have the time or interest to spend weekends messing around with the device I need to stay in touch with work and family. It’s just not worth it. De-googling android is just way too much work.
