Wow thanks for letting me know. I finally have haptics again after switching to an iPhone 6 years ago.
I totally agree with iOS having a worse typing experience. On Android with Gboard I could swipe/type extremely quickly with few errors. On iOS I make a mistake every few works, and the swipe accuracy is significantly worse.
I know that there is Gboard with iOS, but I've had a lot of trouble with custom keyboards on iOS, so I've given up.

What multi-finger text editing gestures am I missing out on?

Undo and redo:
Undo the last edit: Swipe left with three fingers, then tap Undo at the top of the screen.
Redo the last edit: Swipe right with three fingers, then tap Redo at the top of the screen.

The iPhone innovated finger-touch-based on-screen keyboards while everyone else was still typing with a stylus on a tiny keyboard, but since then, they seem to stagnate. iOS 16 just got haptic feedback on its keyboard in 2022(!), and I am still making more typing errors compared to Android with Gboard.
