    Didn’t Apple just come out with one or am I mistaken?

    I have an iPhone 15 Pro and a recent Pixel (just because I’m a dev and want to know both ecosystems). I use the iPhone as my daily driver, though, not because it’s necessarily better but because I cannot help myself when it comes to tinkering with Android devices. I have semi-bricked several over the years and then had to install Windows in a VM to run some sketchy-looking factory reset program.

    Basically, it’s not an Android problem. It’s a me problem. I’m the one who needs a walled garden so I don’t do science experiments.

        Safari + AdBlock + Vinegar makes for a great YouTube experience.

        That said, Freetube on my Pixel is wonderful.

          Yeah, fair. I picked this as an example, but overall I’d consider a phone unusable if you can be denied apps. Especially when it comes to important things like censorship evasion tools, which are very likely to be deleted from App Store on request.
