Weirdly, I feel like there's an Anti-Apple stigma by engineering types in my circles.
There's 2 main Android users in my circles:
Engineers under 50 and people over 50 that hate or dislike Apple.
Engineers that have to use Solidworks/CAD workflows that don't exist on Mac (and wish they could).
I use iMessage + Signal for secure messaging between groups, which resolves the "green bubble" issue and preserves security. I don't get any other arguments re: group chat with Android users.
I also don't get buying Android devices at this point given that OS updates/device longevity is shorter, and iOS has basically hit feature parity with Android.
I originally only switched when no one would make a Droid Razr M-sized phone but Apple anymore (iPhone SE), and found the whole Mac/iPhone/iMessage/AirDrop/etc. ecosystem just more pleasant to deal with and considerably more reliable, consistent, and most importantly less expensive.
