You can only use safari on ios which again locks developers into the apple ecosystem. It doesn't even work properly on iPhones with less RAM and constantly refreshes Web pages making the experience unusable. I'll never buy an iPhone again.

My brother swears by those bloody phones. No clue why. Rest of my family calls Apple "Crapple". Always knew why my dad does, he's very technical and understands the reasons they suck. My mum, though, I assumed just trusted his judgment... until I recently finally got the whole story. When they were living together in their first student flat, they had an Apple computer they shared for writing their papers. Mum once lost days of work on a paper when the computer crashed on her - she'd saved it recently, but the system crash corrupted the file. She's hated "Crapple" ever since. (That woman... when a piece of technology screws her over badly enough, she holds the grudge forever. I aspire to someday be as good at holding anger and using it productively/to avoid poor choices and being burned twice as she is.)
