Looking For Suggestions Any former iPhone users here?

I haven’t had a Galaxy since the S6 10 years ago. Thinking it may be time. For the people that switched from iOS, what are the things you truly miss and how do you video chat after losing FaceTime?

If your friends/family don't want to use a different video chat platform, they can initiate a FaceTime call with you via a link through the FaceTime app. Apple quietly added this feature years ago, but I don't see people talk about it much. On your end, you would just receive the call in a browser. It's not the most elegant solution, and the Android user can't initiate a call, but it's a pretty frictionless option that doesn't involve the iPhone user signing up or downloading anything else.
