    im 26, I was a kid with flip phones, I remember dropping my dads in the toilet, I was an early ipad kid basically, needed phone games lol, I rmemeber early iphones and the fake chinese ones with the picture puzzle game, kinda went through a lot of eras growing up, had an xperia play as my first phone in middle school (amazingly didnt regret it even tho any phone + psp wouldve been a far superior combo lol) Ipod touch 4 year or two before is when the appstore was poppingoff with angrybirds, doodle jump, etc.

      When I hit highschool everyone had smartphones and they were just becoming close to what we have today then. Snapchat was popular, vine, instagram was starting to become the weird arty sht it is now. Iphone started becoming a status symbol in middleschool, im kinda all over the place, but ppl had androids/whatever os wasnt iphone/android for a short period

        ppl blame imessage but the real issue back then was app support, ppl just wanted consistently and everything to work, plus androids tended to have worse quality around the board when uploading even with better hardware think they still have lower limits for apps like tiktok

      I remind my currently 20 something nephew how he would cry crinkly crocodile tears if he wasn’t given a dose of Talking Tom.
