I was very very close to ditching my Android device for an Apple device because it seemed like Apple was on the side of privacy.
I don't feel that way anymore, and watching the FOSS projects like the PinePhone with a lot of interest.
I made the switch from Android to Apple a few months ago for exactly this reason, and boy do I feel like I’ve been bait-and-switched.
Is it impossible for you to return the device because you don't agree with this change?
Same here, exactly.
i actually had an ipad picked out and in the basket ready to buy it! although i have been thinking of buying one for a good few months now, ive just been hesitating a lot because i was not sure if i could handle how restrictive ios is compared to android.
the thing that really has me torn is that there is nothing else like it for simole/fun/creative music making apps (samplr, reason compact etc), which is the main reason i was going to buy one. at the same time i don't want to be part of apple's figures next quarter
