I applaud you but I will just add that unless you go with grapheneOS or one of the other Google free android forks, android is way worse and if anything feels MORE adversarial than iOS. Not to mention Google is the actual evil empire and android constantly tries its damndest to rat fuck you out of giving up your precious data as many ways as possible. For all of apple’s faults, they can be reasonably locked down. I wouldn’t trust a Googled phone as far as I could throw it.

Indeed the hoops you have to go through to run the software you want on the machine you own went from a few clicks in 2023 to scary CLI instructions in the terminal in 2026.
Yikes.
