Side loading and OS modding would be the only thing that could make migrate.
Changing their business model from walled garden lock-in would be the only thing that'd make me consider migrating.
Only thing that would make me use an iphone is side loading and the ability to place my icons wherever i want. Its crazy to me that icons have to start in the top left. The hardest place to reach especially as phones have gotten bigger. Such a dumb restriction.
That's really a thing? Wow. Guess you can install a bunch of junk apps to fill that corner so you can reach the stuff you actually use lol
I believe you can place widgets now which would fill some of the space, still very stupid though.
I had the 2nd and 4th Gen iPod touches and the way to do it back then was to jailbreak it and use an app that installs blank icons so you can "arrange" the pages however you wanted. Good times.
also lifting that stupid ban on other browser engines, and I'd like to see the ability to change more default app stuff
Yeah, that too
