    iOS user: “DUDE have you seen [new iOS feature]? This is the bee’s knees!” [10 minutes of gushing omitted for brevity]
    Android user: “…Yeah, we’ve had that for 15 years.”

        To be fair, Apple had a PDA, the Newton, back in 1993… Not that it was the 1st again…

        I had one called the iPaq.

        Apple has since then made it illegal to trademark products starting with “i”. Irony.

        It wasn’t an entirely new concept but it completely redefined what it could be. Look up what Android looked like until the iPhone was demoed.

      Floating apps. And split screen. I was playing Pokemon Go with reddit open in the corner in 2017 and it was old then. I dunno when iOS got it, but it’s recentish.

        Neither floating apps nor split screen were ever released for iOS. Split screen was added a while ago for iPadOS, but floating apps (Stage Manager) was released just last year.

        Copy muthafuckin paste. That was a laugh, listening to explanations of why you didn’t need it, until they “invented” that too.
