iPhone users are normally not tech savvy and aren't fast adapters.

Android users are more techy and can use pretty much anything.

Plus Apple is about 3 years behind Android on everything - but when they come out with something that's been on Android for years - they and their fanboys all claim it's new and awesome

I’ve got to say, the android users I know are on the techy/nerdy side.

As an Android user I am "guilty as charged" regarding this.  In my "professional life" as well as some of my personal life I am very much a "geek/nerd/etc.".  The way that I look at mobile devices goes pretty much like this.

Android >> IPhone >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Windows.

What surprises a lot of people is that weekends for me (or any time off of work) I stay away from pretty much any "technology".  I rather enjoy time off basically driving a tractor, cutting down trees, splitting wood or shooting my guns out on my property.  In the evenings I sit out by a campfire with my wife and watch as the sky lights up with a bunch of stars that you don't see in any city.  My computers, television and phone/tablets are pretty much shut off the whole time.  I communicate with my friends face-to-face and when we do go out somewhere I pay in cash.

Getting back on-topic I actually clicked on the link from the OP (dangerous... I know).  It's not the phone that "turned this guy gay it's an app (allegedly).

From the article.

Quote:In a complaint published on Wednesday, Razumilov says he received 69 GayCoins on a cryptocurrency payment app he downloaded onto his iPhone in 2017.

The unknown sender of the coins reportedly wrote a message in English for Razumilov which he interpreted as "don't judge without trying".

Razumilov said in his complaint: "I thought, indeed, how can I judge something without trying it?"

And so, because of this message, he said he began having same-sex relationships.

I knew about bitcoins, but who knew that there exists something called GayCoins?
