Im not bashing android i have to use one of their devices for work; it’s ok. The users on social media with the vitriol for apple and their need to defend android is really cringe.

I hear ya. To be honest, I don't really engage in such types of discussions - in terms of phones, gaming, browsers, hell, even movies!

Those kind of vitriolic discussions are led by a minority group who has nothing else to do in life but post stupid comments on the internet.

I could say the same about apple users. But then I go to the real world and notice that the vast majority of people couldn't care less about such dick- (or pussy-) measuring shenanigans.

To be honest the only company I see apple users bitch about is apple.

Which makes me ask the same question I asked in another comment: if you're going to bitch about Apple, then why keep buying Apple?

Maybe those Android users were former Apple users, then. (I say this half-jokingly, but I'm still curious about the question.)

Because people like to complain. Plenty to complain about android as well neither are perfect.

Absolutely, so going back to the original discussion, if "people are going to complain anyway," then people bashing Apple shouldn't be a reason not to consider Android.

Its not valid complaining, its vitriol towards other human beings for being “fan boys” or whatever, and how stupid they are for not picking their gizmo company.

Which we already established, it's a very stupid, very loud minority. Just like Apple users. If you haven't seen any Apple users bashing Android, then you're one lucky user.

Someone who barges in a discussion getting triggered when someone said something bad about his beloved company, says he's not. lmao
