I just got an alert from Google, with a 'Meow Movie' of my cat photos and I'm in love lol
This has become a nearly routine post of mine, but I just love everything Google is doing from a software and services standpoint. There's so much they have implemented that makes me smile. The Pixel feels far more personal to me than my iPhone ever did. It actually helps me get where I'm going quicker, or assist me with questions or reminder throughout the day. I'm actively engaging with my Pixel, Home, Home Mini and Pixelbook on a daily basis, and that includes using the assistant on each one. I don't remember ever having this much enjoyment out of the iOS/Mac ecosystem.
I didn't realize it before, but Apple really never hit home for me on the human touch. I feel like Google has that, and it's only going to get better. There's so many little things on a daily basis that give me that feeling. That feeling that it can relate to me and what I need or want out of it. In retrospect, Apple/Siri just feels sort of cold and unrelatable, like they don't know what I need or want, and don't care.
It's a good feeling.
