IMHO the "blue bubble exceptionalism" is the elephant in the room.

I find it curious why this is downvoted?
IOS is a clear market leader overall in USA with 57% market share according to statcounter:

It's not hard to imagine that could be even more for teenagers, that are more vulnerable about being socially left out.
And yes I too find that problematic, because Apple is a control freak company, that want's to decide what you can do with your phone. Resulting in insanity early on, that you couldn't buy the most popular newspapers in Denmark through the App store. Because they had content Apple didn't agree with!!!
How the fuck that shitshow of a company ever became so popular is beyond me, no matter how "good" their claimed quality is.
