> People will shut you out of their life if you stop sharing your location with them

Is the implication of this that such people just don't interact with Android users? That seems like a significant self-imposed limitation. Or are Android phones just extremely unpopular in your area?

Yeah, I switched to an iPhone solely for the blue text bubbles. Among young women in my bubble, 98% have iPhones. I’d get sneers at bars from girls when my first text on their phone was green. People would complain openly about my phone ruining their group chats. While I preferred android tech, switching to iPhone was a no-brainer because it removed a lot of friction in social settings.
It’s a bit sad that these days I can’t say if you are joking or not.
