I used to love Android but I want to move, and I don't know if it's the right thing. (lemm.ee)

I was an iOS supporter until iphone 5 then I discovered the beauty and freedom of Android.

To this day with Samsung s22+

But currently I am a bit tired, there is no android phone that I am passionate about, oneplus has given me nothing but problems, Samsung with exynos is a disaster (not to mention the new blockages at sideload and the green stripes on the display), I don't even want to go near all the other Chinese brands, and Nothing is not what it promised to be.

I want to go back to iOS but there are a few things holding me back:

how can sideload be managed on iOS? Are there modified apps like youtube, reddit?
I follow a lot of NSFW channels on telegram, discord and reddit itself, are there any problems on iOS? are there ways around this? (my girlfriend has iOS, and every time I want to forward an nsfw gif she doesn't see it)
surf the sea, is it complex on ios? Especially in terms of gaming?

TBH only yt, nsfw and modded apk keep me on android. Thanks a lot in advance

Get a Pixel, install GrapheneOS and you're done.

You can wait for a cat to fall into a garbage can or you can push a cat into a garbage can and get it over with.

Cats aren’t really that expensive, are they?

Sadly, google cats aren't part of the cat distribution system.

Given how expensive phones are in terms of environmental cost you really shouldn't be buying new phones unless your current one's broken to the point of unusable.
