I am tired of awesome hardware that Verizon/Samsung/att decide to take a gigantic shit on with their custom garbage software
- judge2020 9y agoGoogle is in a partnership with Verizon on the pixel 2, they wouldn't risk losing that deal by preventing OEMs from installing the bloatware they want on people's phones.
- paulie_a 9y agoI really can't comprehend why a company would spend the engineering effort to install stuff on a perfectly good os. "Hey so let's make the user experience worse"
- TeMPOraL 9y agoFor the same reason so much engineering talent works in adtech, which is also all about making user experience worse - because there's money to be made there, and people involved don't give a shit.
