The difference is that you aren't forced to buy a game from steam.

You're not forced to buy an Iphone. You also weren't forced back in the day to use Internet explorer.

We should remember our history so we aren't doomed to repeat it.

  • You are forced to have a phone and there's only 2 bad choices.

    • Technically 3. Not much different from the Desktop situation. Just replace Microsoft with Google because Microsoft had the grace to bow out early.

      Similar to desktop, I choose the middle ground between true freedom and walled garden. At least you Can de-googlefy 95% of Android. More than you can de-microsoft Windows.
