It's actually one of the reasons I use Android and why I'm looking at alternatives, like Librem 5 and PinePhone. I don't like how Apple doesn't allow competing browser engines on their phones and tablets (only skins that use Safari underneath), and I don't like Google's privacy issues on their phones.

Yeah, I've pre-ordered the Librem 5 for those same reasons. It will likely absolutely pale in comparison to Android/iOS features, but I'm wanting to go full "Off To Be The Wizard" and help develop the lacking apps.
