    Inside the apple ecosystem the iPhone can also be used as a flash drive. Between airdrop, connecting it directly to my mac and iCloud Drive I have never once not been able to get files on or off my device (with no need for third party apps I might add)

    You mentioned side loading. What are you side loading? Give me examples of what you’re installing? I want a compelling reason to ditch my iPhone so I’m not paying what amounts to the cost of a computer every few years.

      And there’s the rub. The entire world doesn’t use Apple. I need to be able to plug it in at work or something, have the Windows PC there automatically recognize and mount it, drag files to it, take it home, and then plug it into my Linux box and grab the files.

      As for your second question, it’s usually “naughty” apps like Youtube Vanced, IT utilities and tools made by individuals who only offer an APK download and aren’t in the store, or my own little hobby project apps.

      A big one for me is Youtube Revanced. It has become invaluable for me as it is actually better than Youtube Premium because of the SponsorBlock integration. I’m also able to still be logged in and have access to my “watch later” list and feed. Both of these things can also be achieved by Firefox with full extensions support on Android, but the App’s usability is higher and supports 60FPS video out of the box, unlike the Firefox solution.
