my alarm just stopped going off on iOS 26 what the hell
@alicela1n it's been kinda broken for me since the first beta, it only really fucked me through and through once so far but yeah the software quality on iOS is SO BAD as of late, I wanna throw my phone in a lake...
@nela this alarm problem is so bad I'm considering selling my iPhone and getting a Pixel to install Graphene OS on
@alicela1n both options currently equally suck
@nela @alicela1n
frankly speaking, as someone who has used both, it's a case of trading the poison of stuff that can be solved with a physical alarm clock, for a platform that is actively trying to become locked down, and google wants to make into a complete walled garden, and plenty of key apps for people's daily lives simply do not work because of play integrity checks if you go the custom rom route
@alicela1n @littlemisssynth I see my phone looking as normal as possible as a good thing, I see quality of life things like apple pay as incredibly useful for my day to day usage, up until recently iOS had better cutting edge/accessibility features and the system was a lot more polished than graphene ever could. all of this ofc came with the trade off of depending on some testflight apps, some annoying side loading with renewals, features being walled to specific regions and some dependency on icloud. at this stage both systems have plenty of irritating UI/UX (and related logic) bugs that are absolutely unacceptable, and the advantages of both systems are fading away. at this stage I feel like the only reason I own a phone is because I have to survive and the caveats that come with phone ownership outweigh the few good quality of life I actually get by owning a phone.
edit: I really don’t understand why apple doesn’t introduce some of the neat graphene features like the distress pin, the 10 failed attempts thing is similar but it’s not as aggressive and things like auto shutting off bluetooth and wifi would also be neat on the iOS side…
