Notifications. There is a larger list, but notifications are so bad that they fill places 1-10

Dude, it’s 2023, all phones are very good as standard, most are excellent.

2016 wants it’s pathetic debate back.

Be ready for the notifications mess. Yes, it is just like that, yes apple users don’t understand why it’s bad, no, you can’t fix them.

But this is a tad ridiculous. Sideloading on Android has always been a thing, the average user has no idea what it is or how to do it.

Yes, it’s safer within the app store. No, granny won’t accidentally install something, you need to allow installs from the source, accept permissions, clear the “are you sure” security screen, then finally choose between install and cancel, before getting one last security screen, “app was downloaded from the internet”.

The concept of security is correct, your anecdote is a false example of it.
