Apple responds to the Beeper iMessage saga: ‘We took steps to protect our users’::Beeper, like Sunbird and Texts, sought to find a way to bring iMessage to Android users. Its app, Beeper Mini, worked well. But a few days after it launched, Apple took steps to shut it down.
They pretty much just both thought that Android was inferior. Kind of unfair from one, who was a photographer, considering I bought a Galaxy thinking it had a better camera than the current iPhones (it didn’t, because the processing and camera app were inferior). So she’d be like “I don’t know why you bought that thing.”. But she was aware it cost as much as an iPhone at the time.
The other gf was a design snob (worked for a major clothing company as a color designer) and just thought that Android was complicated and tacky. Not that she ever really used it.
It’s the same problem with so much of the issues we’re facing in society people don’t know it so it becomes the “other” and therefore bad.
