I tested Microsoft’s new Android phone in Windows File Explorer feature and now can’t imagine how I lived without it.

    Nope nope nope nope nope nope nope. With Microsoft found having uploaded peoples files to OneDrive because they felt like it and jamming advertisements all over their OS, there is no fucking way in hell I’m giving a Microsoft app any access to my files.

    Google is bad enough, I got into using Android from the beginning to break free of Microsoft shit. Microsoft has proven to be a very shitty steward for their users.

        Android was released in 2008; And Google wasn’t the behemoth it is today. Microsoft had already shadow-funded multiple companies to try and destroy Linux, as well as many other horrid practices; like inventing ActiveX

        Android is Linux under the hood, and open source at that; so I run an Android distribution stripped of Google’s influence. Notice I said that I got into Android and not Google.
