There's a certain 'luxury' or 'sex appeal' to Apple products, but there are things I value more. I run /e/ os on a fairphone. I often ask people what kind of phone they have, and when they occasionally ask back, they are blown away that what I do is an option. The fact that I can show people there is another way is reason enough, in spite of everything I personally value.
