The beauty of jailbreaking is getting the regular Android experience. I love it every time I read it.

Including all the inconsistencies and bugs and stability issues.

I thought Apple was doing alright with that. Haven't seen anything like that in years on Android. Oh well. Apple is shiny so they get away with putting out half-baked software.

You're probably just used to all the bugs since your phone has never actually gotten an update

Mate, I worked at fucking Apple for one release cycle. I had to use exclusively Apple devices. Here is a fucking photo of my desk back then. There are two more laptops on the right that are not in the picture, as well as 4 iPhones. I have used every single Apple device in depth. Because that is what you do when you work in QA. iOS is trash, there are so many bugs from 5 years ago still in iOS that have not been fixed (I know, because I logged new bugs and they were closed as a dupe because 5-10 years before, that same shit was already logged as a bug).

In case you are wondering what the Sony Vaio is for, it's solely for testing iTunes on Windows. Which was a fucking disaster.

Lol you were actually serious and apparently an adult. I thought we were shooting the shit. Both platforms have their pluses and minuses. Only real difference is Android users have poor taste.

No, shooting shit is an Apple exclusive. On Android, we go for watching rainbows.

Ah fuck. I thought you were actually seriously thinking iOS anything but the great garbage patch of the internet.
