Genuine question, why stick to ios in that case? I can see a normie who is unaware of these stuff keep using apple since their use case isn't that complex and apple gives a decent baseline.

But, ios legitimately sucks because it's so restrictive and here your personal productivity is going down because of it.

I used Android and its variants for 10+ years. With each version you had to do more and more battle to somewhat safeguard any shed of privacy. It was exhausting.

So I bit the bullet and chose the lesser of two evils. Apple > Google.

Happy so far.

You cloud always use LineageOS or even better GrapheneOS. With Apple, you're just trading one devil for another.

There is no lesser. 4 oz pile of blue shit is same as 4 oz pile of pink shit. Both the enshittification process will enshrine.
