Yeah I have been using android for every single phone I've ever had, but I don't see the point once iOS allows sideloading. They have locked down android so much(I kind of understand why, but still) at this point that sideloading is pretty much the only difference now. So why go for android?
- 0x38B 3y agoYou can side load apps, but need a Mac or a MacOS VM and XCode. But without paying the $99/year developer program fee, apps have to be reloaded every week. I paid the $99, as I grew tired of reinstalling the tethering app or GBA/PSP emulator. If sideloading becomes easier, that’ll be a big win in my book.
- hedora 3y agoI would have said you are being overly pessimistic about Android, but my Pixel Pro 6 is collecting dust for the reasons you stated. Using it as a webcam would be a win though. It has a nice camera that sort of works in open-source land.
