I’m a linux, sometimes windows, and android user. I own an iPad, because of the Affinity apps, not available on android.

The browser fuckery, and other restrictions, like no torrenting, for example, that Apple imposes makes me continuously consider selling the iPad. Only Affinity saves the iPad. I could not accept these limitations in my primary communications device. the Android experience may be less polished, but it’s because freedom creates inconsistencies. I’d much rather have the inconsistencies, along with freedom.

Goggle things you can’t do with iPhone.
