The other comment is great, as a plan B this app is what I use for automating just about anything on android.

It takes a little while to get used to the block programming, but it’s fun and can do lots of stuff. The free version should work fine on an alternate android-based OS, but I haven’t checked myself.
Edit: used to use. I haven’t actually been on stock android for a while, and I haven’t used the app in a while either.
I think this comic is more about the feeling of it. I certainly feel like my work-issued iphone gets more and more bogged-down with every major update, with less and less room for apps and media. It certainly feels like the only reason for the bloat is to goad me into buying cloud storage and/or a new model.
And just to be clear, I’m not hating on apple. Given the predatory nature of late-stage capitalism, apple is probably the least-shitty of the IT megacorps.
Hell yeah.
I am the IT guy in my family, I have a bunch of S7s for the wife and kids with eOS, and everybody is more then happy with them.
I got a fairphone 5 a awhile ago for myself, and while it did cost €600+, I wanted the modularity and reparability, I just wanted to support that type of company and try it out. Hopefully I will have it for 10 years or so.
