minus-square@moon@lemmy.mllinkfedilink0•edit-21 year agoYou still get a lot of the old ‘android is for poor people’ narrative. Age and sub-culture also play a part. Drake, one of the most commercially successful musicians in the past 15 years, released a song where he says he wouldn’t answer a call from a woman because she was calling him from an android. That song came out just 6 months ago (Oct 2023) and was number one on the charts. A ton of young people will have heard that and been influenced on some level by it, so the Apple fanboy/android hater thing probably won’t be going away any time soon
minus-squareBolexForSouplinkfedilink0•1 year agoI get that but there’s a bit of a difference in status symbols/conspicuous consumption and “Apple fanboy” culture IMO. But again, I get what you mean.
