As an Android user, Android phones with Google Play Services are no better - in fact I'd say they're probably worse
No at least you can side loade and install other app stores out of the box with android. It`s far from perfect but still way better.
FDroid for open source apps.
News flash, you can do that on iOS too.
Edit: downvote away, my custom apps on my iPhone run great without jail breaking. Love all the wrong info on Lemmy. Good stuff.
Don't you have to jailbreak to do that
Nope. You can install any app with developer license. You can also jailbreak. Don’t bother replying to this comment, I’ve read enough brain dead replies already.
Which costs an additional $100/yr for something that's free on any other platform.
Naw you can use a service like maplesign for $10
With developer license
Doesn't seem fair to pay for the luxury of being able to install your own software
Not really, no
Okay! You’re wrong but that’s alright. I’m running custom apps on my device without jailbreaking.
Yeah, the customs apps, for which you pay a developer license for. Which need to be reinstalled every so often because Apple doesn't want you to use apps like that.
They run so great though /s
