Ok, so I might as well buy an iPhone then because this is the only thing android did better lmao. Fuck you google.

Use GrapheneOS. It's degoogled android. Currently you have to install it yourself on a Pixel phone but AFAIK Motorola is working on releasing device with Graphene pre installed

Sadly Jolla only offers their products in the EU, for those of us in North America we just have to flash old Sony models, or look on with envy, as far as a phone with Sailfish OS goes. The one thing that bothers me is not all of Sailfish is open source though, but overall I think its a cool project.

Do they actually make it better or does their marketing say so?

considering, EU aside, that you can't load software on an iphone outside of the App Store, I'd say yes.

Even in the EU there isn't really an alt store ecosystem apart from the epic game store

It’s made better, especially if you have additional Apple products.

I already feel the angry fanboys, so I’m ready for downvotes.
