OP provided a little bit of more context in another comment. It was a public school.

What's wrong with them? If you happen to have some sort of microsoft dependency, they are a good choice for you. Not perfect, as any other cloud provider, but a good choice nonetheless.

Playlists. I can migrate them to Apple Music but the order in which I added each of these songs is important to me and the last time I tried to export them, such an order was lost.

I know I might be the minority but that's what happened to me the last time I wanted to try something different from Spotify.

It is fair to say that the answer came from a volunteer, although supervised by Google.

Is there anyway to opt out of this?

Mine has remained intact even without a case (with the usual wear of course, but no cracks).

I am a s10+ user and recently I ditched all the different google version of my phone apps. I decided to use samsung's version of the calculator, calendar, files and contacts apps.

They seem solid enough for me and some of them present better integration with the Samsung ecosystem . Those apps are also integrated with different third party providers including google .

I still despise bixby but I'm very satisfied with the rest of the phone.

As a power user I find what you said to be strong points of WhatsApp Web. For instance, I want it to alert me as soon as there's a web connection and that's only possible with the current connection model and for security measures I think it's safer to have only one instance at a time.

The connection reliability is a hassle but usually when you're in the desktop you also have a good wifi connection and even though the web client loses connectivity temporarily it keeps working as good as it can.

On the other hand it's easy to forget that you have an active session in other apps such as Telegram unless you keep track of it in your app. Someone you share your laptop with can just open the Telegram app and they'll be able to see my chat conversations be default.

I know some of these things might be something you'd prefer but I choose the hassle instead.
