Apple kills things off, it's true, but as much as I've wanted to criticize that in the past, it's always struck me as the cutting away of the dead weight so they can keep moving forward. Sure, I thought they dropped the floppy drive early, but it worked for them and it helped move the industry along.

I feel like that 32 to 64 bit move is different than what I was talking about. Google basically has 4 ways for people to message each other, and two ways to video chat. Hangouts was the only one that did both in one app but they seem to be moving on from it. What the hell is that?

Again, the preference for one over the other is very subjective. This works for me right now, and Android appeals to you at the moment. It's all good.
