Sony is shifty with their PlayStation practices but their phones are genuinely good - seems like they are closer with the camera part of the business, which is pretty well liked from what I understand. The software support (or lack of) is the main issue but the hardware is clearly made by people that care (although apparently not enough about overheating on the IV series).
Yeah, I had that with Sony, Apple, Microsoft, Google, Samsung.
A couple years ago, I decided not to cut my nose off to spite my face and evaluate the products and hope some shenanigans root kit doesn’t happen after i’ve purchased it
I think im paraphrasing the author Iain Banks here, I feel like a piece of sweet corn in a turd, technically I’m intact but I’m still surrounded by shit.
On the plus side it pushed me to Linux as my desktop OS.

My institutional memories prevent me from buying Sony
When the PS4 came out and my old friends were clamoring over it i thought, “In 2003, we swore ‘never again’. In 2013, we broke that promise.”
But i NEVER DID

TBH I didn’t feel that strongly, but I could not resist channeling BLM
That analogy works for many things these days
