I'd say Android, Pixel, and GCP. I personally think GCP is a lot better than AWS (was an SRE, have used both extensively). Android kinda doesn't need an explanation, and Pixel has grown to be a pretty popular brand and probably the only bloat-free premium option for an Android phone these days?

Yeah, I like Samsung devices (loved the Note many years back, recently used the S22 Plus). I do think there’s some bloat on them though? E.g. can’t remove the Galaxy Store, they have their own versions of applications, and they might have turned around but weren’t they adding ads into the OS?
