I used an iPhone for a few months last year and I had such a hard time with just how much it costs for apps. Everything is a subscription and you have no options for sideloading your own app or FOSS.
I tried to set my alarm to a piece of music that was released under a creative commons license and the only way to do it was to spend $1 with Apple.
On iPad you did not even have a calculator app until recently. You had to buy one or get one with ads. I’m taking super basic functionality here right. No scientific calculator or anything.
Totally get what you mean, I’m using an iPhone right now and it’s super polished, but yeah, the whole subscription everything and lack of sideloading can be frustrating. Do you mainly use Android or Linux now for that freedom?
I used Apple stuff for a while but and in many ways it is superior to anything else, but just like I don’t have a Bentley to drive to work I’m totally fine with the lesser option and have bunchs of money left for more important/valuable things.

I use Android as my daily phone, but I do keep going that I’ll have a Linux phone that meets my needs some day.
