Comment on Strategies and advice for transitioning out of Apple's ecosystem of devices?
CorvusCornix@piefed.social 1 week agoAlso, what helped is me realising I don’t need that tight integration between the phone / tablet and laptop / desktop. They’re different devices: to consume content vs to create it.
This was a key realization for me, too. I thought that I’d really miss all the Handoff and Continuity features but I rarely actually needed to be able to, for example, edit documents on my phone from my laptop and vice-versa.

On a general basis I agree, but for her the synchronization tends to matter a lot. She rotates which device she’s editing documents with based constantly. It’s easier to work with an iPad while traveling, a laptop at the desk, or her phone as a last resort.

Ah, that’s a bit trickier then. To be honest, I haven’t found a replacement for this that’s as “easy” as Apple’s suite (Pages, Numbers, etc.) that just syncs. It looks like Euro Office, a fork of Only Office (available through Nextcloud as Nextcloud Office), finally launched a few months ago so that might be worth looking into.
