Takes long to install software, slow, requires reboot after install. That's too much effort for me to handle.

Well, all my home appliences rely on Alexa. I do trust amazon as i had no issues with it.

About apple, i did opt out from diagnostic data sharing, filled my icloud drive and disabled find my iphone. Tho to be honest, i had this iphone for 2 years now and havent found a reason to switch yet. (iPhone 12)
