  • you can’t move that account somewhere else.

    That means you can migrate between servers and keep all your friends and followers, something that’s currently not possible in the Fediverse.

    It absolutely is possible to move accounts between instances on the fediverse. I’ve done it multiple times.

    It does have some quirks tho. Posts aren’t migrated to your new account. (Some fedi software lets you migrate posts, but from what I hear it’s kinda jank).

    It’s not seamless, but the option is there, and you won’t lose any friends or followers (unless they’re defederated or something)

    Bluesky accounts seem like they’ll be more portable than fediverse accounts but I don’t know much about it






  • There are ads on the app store, which I’d consider to be part of the “primary operating system”, especially since it’s the only way to install apps.

    Not to mention constant ads for icloud. In the photos app, and even notifications from the settings app. (It’s possible to turn these off, but not easy or intuitive).

    After switching to Android, I haven’t seen a single ad in the operating system, (I think Play Store does have ads, I just haven’t got any for some reason). The closest thing is Google photos sometimes asking me to turn on backup.
