I do wish it were possible to make iOS more free. With that said, is it a fair comparison to draw when someone only knows how to use a VPN if it’s in the App Store, whether Apple’s or Google Play?

So novices on either platform are harmed by lessened app availability even while both could be instructed to set a VPN up in settings or sideload an app.

Now if it’s a TOR browser or something, that’s a big L for Apple.

This whole thread is absurd, sideloading is possible on iOS, end of story. As per the original OP, their comment is 100% about sideloading

My message is clearly talking about side loading. Don’t twist my words.
