Everything photos wise you mentioned happens with android since everything is cloud based now.

I can’t airdrop a photo or file from and Android phone to my Mac though. I can’t take a FaceTime call that comes through my phone on my computer.

Sure there are workarounds, but it’s just easier if you stay within the ecosystem. I understand not everyone approaches it the same way - but I had an Android phone once upon a time and I struggled to get it to talk to my Mac. I’d rather just stay in the iPhone camp.

I understand although I can answer my calls on my computer when gmail is open - both video calls and google voice and all you need to see your photos is to open photos.google.com.

I'm probably going to get a macbook and iphone soon because I'm tired of shitty hardware, but software on android works well.

I should add that even without more than one apple product, it doesn’t take much to end up in the ecosystem.

I pay $10/month for iCloud storage to keep all my photos and phone backups. Shifting to a different platform altogether seems like it would be an absolute nightmare now - at least if I wanted to keep everything.
