They are genuinely more reliable. Having more stalls does help for when there's issues, but they have 99.96% uptime across the entire network. I've had to move stalls once in my almost 3 years of ownership.

They also have their own service people that travel to chargers to fix them, where Electrify America hires local electrical contractors that may not be experts on DC Fast Charging equipment.

Edit: ran some numbers and I've charged 109 times on Superchargers. One failed session. I live in the rural Midwest/South so it's not like I'm in EV heaven either.

You're not unlucky, in the U.S. any charger that isn't made by Tesla is unreliable. It's been getting worse over time, and the only real hope is that every manufacturer is switching to Tesla's charge port (now called NACS) and getting access to their Superchargers.

I had a non-Tesla EV and eventually got a Tesla because I need to road trip regularly and can't handle chargers being down.

I switched to Android a few months ago and expected to want to switch away from Apple Music, but their Android app is excellent. Plus they have lossless quality. Oh, and you can upload your own music to their cloud for streaming anywhere.

Oh this will be nice, I loved having this on iOS. I used it for things like sign in codes from TV apps or whatever. Hopefully it works offline like voice does so I can continue using GBoard without network permissions.

I don't think you understand what Apple Fitness+ is? You don't have to pay for access to any health data?

It's a service with workout videos lead by instructors, like what Peloton offers with their app. It's pretty good, I enjoy the yoga classes on my Apple TV.

Summit, my favorite app, has it!

Yeah, I get notifications on my phone every 5 minutes until I change the laundry, it's been very helpful honestly.
