I know I just find it to be such a manufactured corporate tagline that exists to be used in this way and it rubs me the wrong way

I can see what you mean, though I still find it just harmless humor

Maybe you’re just bad at finding things. It’s a catch phrase from a superhero. Genius.

Feel free to insert the equally stupidly large number of iPhone users for your particular geographic location.

Until cross platform messaging is a good as iMessage and FaceTime from an iPhones user’s perspective it’s going to be bad.

I have only ever used an iPhone (ignore non-smart phones) and have been weaned entirely on Apples stock apps. Conversely almost everyone I communicate regularly with is also an iPhone users. I do use other platform for communicating with non-apple friends but the experience is significantly poorer.

I couldn’t say how many people existed within this almost exclusively Apple ecosystem but I would hazard a guess that there are a few.

My tenets are:

  1. no one will post on lemmy.world without getting prior approval from me
  2. At a minimum every second comment should end in some sort of praise of me
  3. No posting on Thursdays
  4. You accidentally posted something I didn’t like? Tough shit your wife and family are now hostage
