Complain for years on end about the issues with their devices while simultaneously refusing to actually question whether they should stop buying Apple products.
Look, I live in silicon valley, I had to deal with family members and colleagues who had these exact issues in real time. Whenever they ask, “This sucks, is there a better way?” I would explain the circumstances and what phones/software would work as an alternative, and they would act repulsed, as if I offered them poison. “I only know how to use Apple! If I can’t get the same experience I’ll never switch!”
Then the very next year, same thing. Makes me want to tear my hair out when they ask me for assistance and refuse to actually consider why they have these issues in the first place.

ProTip: stop offering assistance to people who come to you for advice/assistance and then immediately disregard your response.
I had family that did that all the time with their computers (I had a computer repair business), and constantly complained about performance, but weren’t willing to change their behavior after asking for advice to make it run better/not be a pile of shit in a month.
Funny how charging customer rates instead of friends and family rates made them either figure their shit out, or stop coming to me every 6 weeks expecting a cheap fix to their lack of willingness to improve things. Either way, I stopped hearing about their exact same issues over and over, so problem solved.
I’m not sure what an iphone user did to you exactly, but seek therapy.
