minus-squaresaltesc@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI’m 39 and not even so old I use native messaging and telephony styled services. Hell, not even my dad does. Did the kids in your school grow up in the 80s or is stuff like iMessage making a comeback because it’s retrocool?
minus-squareSerinus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down1·1 year agoKids think iPhones are cool for a good reason. If a fifth grade kid has an android, it’s probably a cheap one. There are no cheap iPhones. Sure, Pixels are better than iPhones straight up. But who the fuck is buying their kid the latest Pixel? So cool (read: spoiled) kids have iPhones. The others start on cheap androids. That stigma sticks around at least awhile.
