Wait ... are you lamenting the demise of the Micro$oft phone?
Seriously? In public and all? What the hell is wrong with you?
For the record, I DO blame the companies.

Eh. Which one? I once had a $10 Nokia phone that ran Windows... 8? The mobile version, I mean. I got it for shits and giggles. It was cheap and I thought, no way could this thing be good. It actually surprised me. I ended up gifting it to a friend who needed a phone. I think he got like 2 years out of that thing.

Windows Phone before the iPhone was trash though. The old smartphones. Most of them were hot garbage. The iPhone cleaned house for a reason. Later Windows phones weren't bad, they just didn't sell.

Very specifically says not fully blame. That means shared blame. Consumers keep eating shit with a spoon.

And that's why I have to neuter any device I buy.
Fuken pain in the ass, but that's our world.
