    When people ask why I switched to and stuck with an iphone, I always go back to “Google doesn’t know how to do text messages”, but I forgot about this lovely issue. You can’t truly own an Android that isn’t a Pixel and expect software OS updates on a regular basis without bloatware. Additionally, the update does not need to go through your carrier, something that is the largest red flag for me to stop buying non-unlocked Android phones (at least the last time I looked this was a thing).

    Imagine if you went to a dealership, and go to buy a brand new car, but the dealer says they have to do some “improvements” to it before you can drive it off the lot. Only, you don’t know what they did or why, and the car manufacturer doesn’t know either. It’s fucked up.
