Apple does not have the largest market share by OS, Android does. Other app stores and sideloading are already very widely available.
I've heard this argument from iOS users who have never really used Android for a significant amount of time.
I have been using both Android and iOS devices for almost a decade now and there's not much of a difference.
In fact I'd say the experience is better on Android. For instance, if you uninstall a paid app you just recently bought you get an automatic instant refund. Good luck getting a refund on iOS.
I can't tell for sure, but all top commenters itt just feel like being those guys I wholeheartedly hate on the playstore. Some of them even admit that apple does a best thing for a user, but must be regulated down to not being able to do that. To hell with them, I don't want their crapware anyway.
¹ not even a year tbh, but not in just three-day test mode as well. I'm definitely beyond the "setup and try playing with it" stage right now.
