Moving from iOS to Android...
Honestly wasn't ready to but events have transpired to move things along.

Not sure how I feel about it.

I liked it when I did it. And then regretted it when the instability and hardware problems came, and the lack of vendor protection. It's weird the things you don't think about in iOS are often the killer features. From an interface and usability standpoint, I liked the Android better.

The whole vendor support thing really irks me, as some vendors support for their phones varies by model.
Luckily(?) I'm got the use of a Pixel phone and updates are good (just got Android 14 today!).

Put it off. For as close to the hour as possible.
Works better IMO

My condolences. I'm a PC/Android guy but it doesn't matter who you are. Completely changing platforms SUCKS no matter who you are lol

On that note, the past 2 years or so, I've been getting fed up with tinkering with Android. It was the reason I fell in love with it to begin with, but Android 1.x/2.x etc. was a LONG time ago. It's evolved to something I don't recognize as "fun, innovative, interesting, empowering" anymore as I once did. I'm LITERALLY SERIOUSLY considering switching to an iPhone. Google seriously disgusts me more than M$ + Wal-Mart combined anymore these days. It's a shameful disgrace. Oh well, things change. Adapt as needed, I guess lol

It’s difficult getting all the little settings like alarms, and the amount of notifications I want to see. That refinement takes time.

I may yet be able to avoid the move permanently, but it’s still good to see how the other side does things.

@gjacobse I've only been using them since ~2016
Got quite used to it.

Was on Windows Phone before that, and Android before that.
Last version was 2.3 on an HTC Desire!
