问HN:封闭生态系统的用户:是什么让你留在这里?
在阅读关于Tahoe发布的讨论以及苹果优先考虑按时发货而非为客户提供实际新价值的做法后,我开始思考是什么让我继续留在这个生态系统中。
我更多地从转向更简单设备的角度考虑,而不是转向Android,因为我觉得这只是另一种封闭的生态系统。
经过考虑,我发现我转向其他平台的主要障碍有以下几点:
* 云同步/备份
特别是对于照片、信息和应用数据,这些数据会无缝自动保存。如果我丢了手机,几个小时内我就能在新手机上恢复使用。
* 日历和列表管理
尽管与现代AI助手相比,Siri的体验依然相对原始,但能够将我的待办事项和购物清单同步到设备上,并通过语音命令添加内容是必不可少的。
* 电子设备接口应用
我拥有的一些设备(如太阳能充电控制器、漏水探测器)需要iOS/Android应用才能使用。对此没有很好的解决办法,但保留一部旧手机作为控制器是一个选项。
实际上,这个障碍清单比我想象的要短得多。确实有一些我使用的应用,如果我必须在浏览器中使用,体验会显著下降(如YouTube、Spotify、地图),但这几乎值得一试。
如果有一款专注于AI的简单手机,能够解决前两点并提供现代AI语音接口,我会非常感兴趣去尝试。
我也很想听听其他人的看法。

In reading the discussion about Tahoe's release and Apple's prioritization to meet its ship dates over its delivering actual new value to customers has got me thinking about what keeps me there.<p>I am thinking about this more in the angle of moving to a simpler device, not a switch to Android which feels to me like it's trending toward just a different walled garden.<p>After considering, my only main barriers for switching:<p>* Cloud Sync / Backup<p>Particularly for Photos, Messages and App Data, the data is auto-saved seamlessly. If I lose my phone, I can be back on a new one in a few hours.<p>* Calendar and List Management<p>As primitive as the experience still is with Siri relative to modern AI assistants, having my to-do and shopping list sync'd to my devices and being able to add to them with voice commands is an essential.<p>* Electronics Interface Apps<p>A few devices I have (solar charge controller, leak detector) require an iOS/Android app to use. There's not a great way around this, but keeping an old phone as a controller is an option.<p>It's really a much shorter list than I thought it would be. There are definitely some apps that I use whose experience would be decidedly worse if I had to use them in a browser (YouTube, Spotify, Maps) but it feels almost worth trying.<p>If there were an AI-focused simple phone that could solve the first two and offered a modern AI voice interface, I would be very interested to try it.<p>I am curious to hear other's opinions.
