In no particular order

  • File management works like a charm
  • USB-C and fast charging
  • Customizations
  • Custom ROMs
  • Privacy (getting a Pixel soon for GrapheneOS)
  • Easier to repair
  • More efficient (takes less steps to do stuff)
  • Looks better
  • Sideloading
  • More choices for phones

Along the lines of sideloading: proper adblock

I was reminded ads exist after I bought an iPad for school (sadly the notetaking experience is truly unrivaled). Adblock only works on Safari and whether it'll work properly is another roll of the dice.

I have an iPad too. Try NextDNS. I have it set up on my iPad. I think it works but I only use it as a glorified notebook so I'm not sure
