- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.

I hope you would not avoid me for having an iPhone any more than I would avoid you for having an Android phone because judging people for what phone or computer or OS they use is stupid. In my case, I have an iPhone because I got in very early and now have several hundred dollars' worth of apps I don't want to pay for again. Maybe one day I will decide it is worth that sacrifice, but right now, I don't feel like it is. I also don't get the latest and best iPhone. I replaced my XR with a 13 this year.
But to me, you are no better than the hypothetical date in this post who judges the person for not having an iPhone. Why do either of you give a shit? It's a personal choice and it doesn't matter any more than what color your house is painted or what percent of fat you like in your milk.
Judge people for their attitudes and their actions, not what personal devices they decide to spend their money on.
