My first one was a Samsung Galaxy S1 that I got in 2013 and it was a great little device that was easy to open up and repair. It had only 512MB of RAM but that was plenty for basic phone needs, web browsing and running some Android apps like AnkiDroid at the time.
When apple started the enshittification of iPhones. Their launch of maps and trying to force Google out with a worse experience for users, just to increase profit was the push.
Now google is enshittifyijg everything, I’m looking at degoogling.
