Like all the popular android apps require sideloading?

No, at most you'll pay more for the same app your coworker sideloaded. The price for apple protection, +30% on everything.

Most people didn't extract pictures from their phone before apple cloud (or w/e their service is called) appeared. I know because i was the tech support for my family for those 5 years. How would they sideload?

The premium is actually 42.9%, since that is the amount a developer needs to raise their prices to offset the App Store's 30% fee.
