well, it's broken out by release/build for windows and android is just android

tbf, if you put all the windows CVEs on a single line, you wouldn't see the others

the windows cves would probably be largely duplicative thought right? like there aren't 1000 different vulnerabilities between Windows 11 21h2 and 22h2, it's probably ~largely the same 500, double-counted

now that ios lets you customize your home screen icon layout i may actually shift over there next time round.

still wish they'd have a proper SMS software though.

My mom has an android phone. When I want to talk to her, I send a message to my brother and ask him to relay it.

they probably use better things not owned and run by facebook, like signal or imessage

i’ve brought this up before but i did not at all like signal doing the “upload your contacts” thing and then anyone who had me in their contacts got told i was now on signal

i installed it and like fifteen minutes later someone i hadn’t talked to in years messages me

basically just deleted it straight up after that. i think i would expect facebook or linkedin to do that poo poo but getting from a privacy focused apl really rubbed me the wrong way

i got a sarnsung galaxy S24+ to replace my S10+ because sarnsung stopped releasing OTA updates for it. i can't tell what's new it's exactly the same as the last one, phones are a scam!

i've used android forever and i don't give a poo poo. also i'm pretty sure i don't have enough lifeforce left in my body to learn a new phone OS.

Google's Android platform is protected by several additional barriers to entry and expansion, including strong network and scale effects and high switching costs and frictions. For example, if an Android user wants to buy an iPhone, they are likely to face significant financial, technological, and behavioral obstacles to switching. The user may need to re-learn how to operate their smartphone using a new interface.

anyways, I switched from a pixel 3a to an iphone 7 in 2023, there was zero friction and the two phones behave the same in a lot of ways

no more green bubbles though which is such a relief
