      Network effect. Gradually over time my whole extended family wound up with iphones for one reason or another, and Android phones would consistently break our group threads. The last few holdouts (not ideologically, they just didn’t need new phones) wound up switching to Apple afterwards to make everything smoother for the rest of us.
