Here is the thing:

You have the choice to not install the alternative stores and do as Apple allows.

Others, in the EU, will have the choice to not be locked behind the iron curtain.

MySpace was great, man. You don't see very customized pages on social media anymore

Android is shit hot garbage

How? It has its issues so does iOS, but at least I can customize just about whatever I want to my liking without even rooting (and with root, the sky's the limit even a custom kernel)

Hell I'm running a Star Trek LCARS OS skin on my third party launcher right now, and that's been a dream of mine since I was a kid lmao

I would never have been able to do that on iOS without dealing with jailbreaking. You can't even change the icons on iOS without jailbreaking ffs, and that's been a native android feature for....I don't even know how long lmfao, since it's inception maybe?
