No, I'd rather use my device like I want to use my device instead of how I'm told to use it. I don't need to sideload on this device but glad I can if and when I want to. I prefer having a computer with me rather than a purposely stunted device kept that way to sell other devices in the ecosystem.

You say it’s purposely stunted, I say it has guardrails that saves me hours and hours of family IT support time un-fucking my elderly parents phones. This was something I’d have to do every single time I was home when we had android phones.

I would dump Apple in a heartbeat if something better existed. They’re not good but they’re the best for my personal scenario of the current options.
