Microblog Memes

Actually I encounter this routinely as a work issue. My work requires a lot of co-ordination of labor via cellphone and some of the basic features Apple has - regular old group messages for instance don't show me, an android user, if a text is part of a group message and doesn't allow me control over the response. Depending on my software update it either sends to everyone who was tagged in the original message or no one but the original recipient but I won't know until I send it. That means any message I send back leaves me open to communication errors.

Also a whole bunch of stuff is proprietary, facetime, airdrop and so on meaning the ease of sharing information to me because of my hardware can be a factor in whether I get hired or not. This is actually purposefully done by Apple, they create convenience only between their users so it creates social pressure by causing android users to be routine social nuisances. They basically cause all these little micro fractures of actual peer to peer relationships on purpose to sneakily force android users to give up and buy their shit or else people have to be mindful of an android users limitations the same way you might have to adapt your behaviour to someone's disability or allergy... By taking on the cognitive work of understanding and adapting to someone else's limitations.

If you've ever seen someone throw a fit because they had to pick a restaurant with a gluten free option you know certain people aren't great at doing anything that inconveniences them even a little.
