Not having this on my PC is just annoying and I use it so much on my MBP every day. Most people I talk to have iPhones and they use iMessage. When I really sit down and think about what keeps me in the Apple ecosystem it really is just a few things at this point. OneDrive works wonderfully and much better than iCloud Drive. I think the new Surface Laptop looks great. I really don't mind Windows 10 however, and I feel like Microsoft has come quite a long way in a short time in terms of services and hardware. When I use my gaming PC I can't help but feel like I have all this power at my fingertips and I don't use it for anything besides gaming because I have conditioned myself over the years to think I need a Macbook Pro and macOS to get anything done. Things have changed a lot over the years and while I still feel like I enjoy the Apple ecosystem the most, I can't help but feel that I may be letting myself become trapped into one company's vision of the world when there are other, better, alternatives out there. I use DDG as my search, Apple Maps, third party ad free youtube app on iOS, etc. Also, as privacy and data collection has become more of an issue I have gone even further away from Google services. I never really got too heavy into Google services because over the years I have seen them introduce and drop so many products so quickly I just lost faith in them in anything outside of search, email, youtube, maps, etc. However, I have always had custom built pcs for gaming and always tried out Android devices over the years. I can't remember the last time I didn't have an iPhone and a Macbook Pro. I have been using Apple products since I got a 3GS back in 2009 and since then I have found myself slowly getting more and more into the Apple ecosystem. How do you use a mixed ecosystem of devices and services? Does it work well for you? ![]() I have been thinking about this for quite awhile and wanted to just pose a question to those of you on here that use a mix of devices.
