I don't care if anyone has a Xiaomi, Oneplus, Samsung, etc. Each brand is using a modified version of Android, and they chose to be compatible with each other. But for example the "blue vs green bubble" drama is a thing specifically because of Apple locking their unsuspecting users into a closed ecosystem. And it sure isn't Android's fault for not being compatible with it.
The more power a company like this gains, the worse will it be for the whole industry.
As an Android user, I'll offer my side to this:
If I had a dollar for every time a friend or family member asked, "Why don't you just get an iPhone?" I could probably buy the newest iPhone. Added pain that I'm Gen Z in the US where something like 80-90% of people my age use an iPhone.
I swear most of the time people treat having an Android phone as something that needs some sort of defense because they think there's no reason anyone would possibly consider buying anything other than an iPhone.
And why do they make those offers? Perhaps because you're complaining about your device and the problems are things that Apple users never encounter?
And that doesn't explain why android users complain in pseudo-anonymous forums about Apple users. Apple users aren't making memes about how android users are foolish.
If it's because real life friends and family suggest they get an iPhone, that's incredibly passive aggressive.
To your first point, it isn't really an "offer." I don't think I've ever complained about having an Android phone, because I've genuinely liked my Android phones way more than my old iPhone. It pretty commonly comes up whenever communication is involved though because I end up being blamed for not having FaceTime, iMessage, etc. even though most of those problems come from Apple only supporting a messaging standard from the early 90s with Android phones.
To your second point, there are memes though. They're probably not as common on here because the demographic that uses lemmy (or even Reddit to some degree) is more likely to have an Android phone for various reasons. Look up "android camera meme" if you want a clear example of something that usually isn't even true.
I'm not going to go after anyone for using an Apple product, because I can see why someone would use one over Android. But Apple tends to attract people that will blindly defend their bad decisions (no headphones jack, no charger, slow refresh-rate screens on everything but the $1000 model, etc.).
This isn't to say there aren't similar people defending companies like Samsung, Google, etc. Apple just attracts these people at a whole different level. This meme is obviously hyperbole but to be fair you could make this meme about any obnoxious fan group and it would be just as true.
