after 15 years, iOS has finally caught up with all the main android features, such as

  • very mid ui design
  • kinda floaty feeling
  • unpolished vibe android itself has progressed little, although it is rapidly achieving feature parity with iOS on "locked down user hostility". overall both ecosystems look very appealing, energetic, and healthy, for shareholders

What are you talking about? You literally need to click a single “share” button. I honestly don’t understand how anyone remotely tech related could struggle with this.

You didn't explain to me where the file is, you explained how to share one file. Some people like to do this thing with files called ORGANIZE them. Like how back in the day there used to be paper files, in paper folders, in a metal cabinet. That way you can easily find a specific file AND you can transfer the folder with all the organization intact or transfer a whole cabinet, even to a non-apple machine. I want my file system to be brand agnostic. I don't want to have to learn a new UI every 5 years to figure out how to organize things. I don't want to boot up my circa 2005 macbook pro (assuming it still works) and not have any idea how to find all my old media. Directories were invented in 1983 and work just fine, always have, always will.

They are already organized in the photos app. If you don’t like the photos app and how it organizes then you’re free to use a different one. Each app gets its own file system sandbox so if you wanted a simple folder structure that you manually manage, there is no technical reason that isn’t possible on iOS. I’ve personally never looked at other photos apps so I can’t recommend one.

Each app gets its own file system sandbox

Noice. Is this sandbox accessible (for reading at least) by any other app, including file managers and terminal emulators?

And while we are at it: are the paths to different sandboxes organized in a consistent way?
