If you are only concerned about blocking ads thats fine and good. But if your are concerned about privacy one should ditch apple devices altogether. Not to mention freedom.
How is it worse? If you use google apps it is obiously the same as using apple apps. But otherwise you can remove telemetry, use foss apps and if you are up to it patch a safey net fix to use banking apps.
A closed source OS of a company that has broken every anti-trust law, thats sells phones with no headphone jack or charger and calls it features and you tell me it does not sell data. Google and Apple are two of the same Monster. But you can not modify you Iphone whatsoever, Jailbreaking an Iphone is a pain in the ass, while in Android isnt a breeze either it is much easier. Android in it self (Android Open Source Project) kicks any iOS in the ass. The problem is that vendors put a thick layer of their version of android. If you get your hands on a phone that is compatible with Lineage Os (very close to (AOSP) you can escape Googles jail for good. And while agree with tou that Google’s Android is bad it ia certainly not any worse than iOS. Do not take my word for it, just ask any developer.
ah yes, a $1500 phone with software that won’t allow you to do shit under the flag of security and UI.
They’re all headed that way. And Google wants to do it to PCs too.
Safari allows you to install adblockers, btw. Apple is overprotective but this isn’t really their fault.

Because Apple makes money from hardware and App Store sales. Google makes money from selling your data.

And? I don’t want to modify my phone it’s simply a tool for productivity.
I already explained why that is not an option.
