For real, I don't even know people who prefer Android tablets over iPads lol.

[-] mikestevens@lemdro.id 5 points 1 year ago

I prefer my Tab S8 over my 2019 iPad Pro, because all I use my tablet for is editing photos and watching media — but because it has user profiles, I can also share it with my young kids and control their app and content access, etc. So, Android is a very easy win for me in that regard.

iPad REALLY NEEDS users profiles.

[-] mikestevens@lemdro.id 4 points 1 year ago

It does, yeah, but not giving it to you is part of how they've sold so many iPads. Think of how many parents and couples would be happy with one shared multi-user iPad instead of having to buy one for each user.

Apple can be many things, but dumb is not one of them.

They know how to create situations to extract money. It's why I like Apple stock. They are good are creating base tiers that are great, but just with enough limitations to nudge people to upgrade to a higher one or buy two.
