#1 Android. I have an old flip phone I'd rather use than an iPhone that's made in China. Never liked Mac either.

#2 The Crapple ecosystem is designed by mental deficients for mental deficients. It sets my teeth on edge. For all its faults, Android is much more open. I'm running Microsoft Launcher as my front end, Office mobile apps, Outlook and Edge. I'm riding on top of the Gurgle mess, using a login to them for access to the Play Store only.

#4 I really miss my Palm devices, but they went out of business. I got into Apple when my last Palm was dying because that’s what Mr. Wife’s employer supplied him, and that way we could more easily share apps and data. Stayed with them because it is such a pain to manually enter all the data not transferred when switching from Apple to Android ... and also in the opposite direction.
