Android is preloaded with different flavor of crap depending on the vendor and side-loading a phone OS and dealing with everything - I just don't have the energy these days. Likewise for running Linux on top of a M series Apple device. My devices just work and they all work together - all I have to do is login to the same account. My phone shares stuff with my Mac without any setup - shared clipboard, apps, storage. Buds connect to all my devices, Mac Mini, MadBook, iPad - not just 2 BT devices at a time, and they switch seamlessly. Stuff that saves me time and just does what I want. And all of the devices are usually among the best in class individually.
Nobody outside of Apple even has that as a vision. Microsoft is so bad at building consumer products it's unbelievable. Google is struggling to build compiling phones with its own software - I doubt they can execute on other device types. Valve did a relatively small investment in this ecosystem and brought it forward light years in the gaming space.
