Fuck Apple. It’s just a shadow of what it once was, many moons ago, marching full speed into enshitification and fascist cock sucking
And this is half of the reason I abandoned the Apple devices. This and the walled garden and ever lowering quality of the software.

I am going to keep my Samsung for banking and government apps) (it has latest Android ver, so it will work at least for a few more years), but I am planning to switch to Jolla once it is released. I also think Euro government will eventually realize that they need to move off Android/iOS.
There’s also Volla Phone, with Ubuntu Touch or Android (as well as dual boot IIRC)
