Need some interesting apps



By the way, here's my own summary on today's mobile market I've made some time ago:

To translate some things:
???????????? = mainstream universe.
???????? = parallel universe.

??????????????? = Updates are too slow!
iOS??????? = I'll switch to iOS.

??????????? = Customising is impossible!
Android??????? = I'll switch to Android.

you know a lot about many things and here i don't get half of what you are saying. that image is about you switching between iOS and Android?

No, the whole point is to show that despite so many mobile operating systems are being around, the mainstream folks only seem to choose between Android and iOS, because they think that's all what exists.

isn't that because people find them easy to use with lots of apps to install? i use an andoroid mobile phone too
 
I recognize windows, Android, Apple symbols and that's about it and I have never even glimpsed at the symbols

As I already said (and proved), there is no absolute rule to what is easy to use and what is not.
However, there are indeed far more apps for Android and iOS, but be aware that the mobile space is different in that aspect to the PC space.

On the PC, you're free to install apps from outside the official sources, macOS and Linux have a couple of compatibility layers available for Windows apps (or virtual machines if wanted, or even dual/triple boot options if really wanted), and more recent technologies finally make an attempt to make a universal way to develop apps for all systems rather than just the one developers target at that moment.

Mobile is a bit different, since Apple and Google force developers to publish stuff only through their own digital shop, which takes away lots of freedoms from both the developers and consumers, and since you can earn money through these shops while Apple and Google have their share too for each sold app, mobile app developers have become far more greedy than desktop app developers are, and as a result never attempt to create apps for any other mobile platform because less users = less money.
And for that reason, consumers are less likely to buy a phone with a different OS, because developers don't bother to bring apps to other platforms, despite many technologies nowadays that actually allow them to do so.

But maybe history will repeat itself again, and we'll get a mobile counterpart of Richard Stallman and Linus Torvalds?
Who knows?

when i learned that linux don't have many security loopholes like windows, i thought of giving it a try but my friends said it's difficult to use and you should have some computer knowledge to handle it so i dropped that idea and believed that anything other than windows is difficult to use. people like you who are into computers might not get what's difficult but normal folks would clearly see the difference

you could say that i am still stuck in ancient beliefs. i don't want my life to be displayed for everyone because of my webcam. i have heard stories about how some people were recorded like that. i am careful but afraid too
