    I want ad free YouTube but don’t want YouTube music. I don’t want to pay for extra shit that I won’t be using.

    I use Spotify way more than I use YouTube. Spotify does one thing and it does it extremely well.

    If Spotify added unlimited free Uber eats delivery tomorrow and bumped up the price to $20 a month, then sure, it’d be a good deal but I wouldn’t want any of that.










  • I have tried all of the ones on Android.

    Wefwef / Voyager is extremely impressive for what it is - webapp

    However it and all of the other android apps glitch a lot. I’m on a pixel 7 pro so it’s not a legacy hardware issue either

    Sync is by far the best app by a large margin. Everything has a high degree of polish. UX design is perfect, though I may be biased since I’ve been using it for reddit for the past decade.

    Sync only has ads on the post pages, may be once every 10-15 posts. No ads on the comment page. Honestly it’s got the little Google ads that are not a big deal at all

    If you’d like you can remove ads for $30 but honestly it’s not a big enough issue at all




  • Back gesture / design

    Whatsapp portability. Last time I checked Whatsapp data couldn’t be moved to Android. I have a decade of chat history id like to preserve.

    Integration with Google Photos. I am not switching to icloud or any other. Google Photos is just way too good. I can even search photos with text!

    Notification system. I’m not entirely happy with how android does it, but apple does it worse.

    Charging port. All my cables are USB C that charge both my phone and iPad. I’m not thrilled about getting 3 more chargers and cables.

    App prices. Android has great KeePass clients for cheap / free. I use strongbox on my iPad which is like $30 a year
