>I don't want a new "device", a new os, a new "platform", I want a screen that I strap to my face.
Unfortunately it doesn’t matter what you (the consumer) wants. Do you want a single search engine that dominates 90+% of the market and serves shitty ads to you all over the internet? Do you want a single walled garden for your social presence online that captures/sells your data and serves you shitty ads? Do you want 2 main mobile OS’s that tightly control their platforms and the apps available to you?
I will say this though...people saying they want a screen strapped to their face, as you did, is an advertisers wet dream and these tech companies can’t wait to sell you that screen and serve you those ads.
