    in my teenager years I was always fascinated by complicated things, even rooted my Android phone and customized it with CyanogenMod quite a lot.

    Sure, witnessed a lot of bugs, some of them more disturbing that others, but it was a cool learning process.

    With age, family, kids and more responsibilities, I just wanted something that “just works” as I didn’t have enough time to troubleshoot anymore 😞

    I don’t think it’s ok to generalize what teenagers want, at that age I wasn’t even sure what I want with my life haha

    Android was cool as a teen because they had more games and emulators I could play during classes. Nowadays I have an iPhone because it just works for 3 years, then gets a new battery for like $100, and works for another 3 years. That’s 6 years of phone for $1500 for 6 years of phone if you go for a pro with 256GB
