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.

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.

Google will crawl over broken glass to steal your data. Apple sells you overpriced shit. they are not the same

Apple doesn't need to crawl over broken glass to steal your data when you just give it to them.

My man, you're living in cuckoo land if you think Apple isn't tracking you.

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

That doesn’t sound like it’s easier than buying an iPhone

It's much more suited to the usecase.
