Android is only better if you’re using a open-source distribution (ideally a security-focused one) and stick to open-source software, otherwise it’s still proprietary spyware
If you have anything Google related on your phone, the feds can see that. Google literally trained their AI on people’s Google Docs and shit
Yeah but you still get spied on by the NSA either way cause Android belongs to Google and Google is just as deep in bed with the intelligence agencies and the security state as Apple is. This is like saying that getting stabbed is better than getting shot. Sure one is marginally more preferable to the other but both kinda suck. The reason why you pick Android over Apple is just to avoid being stuck in the proprietary hellscape of Apple. You don’t have to deal with bullshit like Apple only apps, Apple only hardware, etc.

I’m only an Apple user when it comes to my cell phone, and I prefer Apple after over a decade with Android. I hope to switch to Huawei or whatever when I move to China.
