Lesser evil of what? There are plenty of Android phones/tablets, and there are _many_ flavors of Android. There are _so_ many Linux/Windows laptops.
People choose Apple both because it's a good experience, and because the alternatives suck. The answer to the problem is _not_ to make Apple's products worse

- pietro72ohboy 3y agoNo amount of repetition is going to convince such people. Their entire argument is predicated on an absolutely erroneous belief that sideloading or user modifications will somehow ruin the experience of people who don’t wish to modify their phone knowing fully well that more setting for users won’t diminish the experience for other users. They’re literally playing stupid to defend a corporation and its practices.

- shepherdjerred 3y agoI don't have a strong opinion about sideloading applications. What I'm more concerned about is Apple being forced to allow non-WebKit browsers in the App Store. Apple requiring the use of WebKit on iOS is the only thing stopping Chrome from having a complete monopoly, aside from Firefox with its 5% marketshare.
- Doe-_ 3y agoI am equally terrified of Chrome's dominance in the browser market. I don't agree that forcing WebKit on iOS is the solution, however. The law should seek to break Chrome's monopoly, not enforce another.
- davidodio 3y agoInteresting take. I’ve de-giogled my life so I didn’t think about chrome. Fair enough
