    Thanks. I’m actually considering /e/os (a degoogled privacy focused android fork) But I’m assuming sone of the issues here still apply.

    I’m really iffy about the privacy constraints with android and the main reason I’m considering switching is

    1. lack of customisation (for me, torrenting is a must have which apple doesn’t allow)
    2. cheaper. I lost my job due to disability so I just need a more affordable solution than apple.

      You can actually (indirectly) torrent on iOS via seed box. I use SonicBit, which has an iOS app. I find it’s actually more convenient than torrenting directly as the files are stored and seeded online yet still accessible to me when I need them. Then you can download the files to your iPhone/iPad.

      for the first point, Transmission has a pretty serviceable web client that works great on iOS as a web shortcut

      its just occurred to me you might mean downloading torrents directly to you iphone, rather than a remote to some other device… in that case a web client isn’t sufficient, you’d have to sideload

      On the price side Apple is bringing out a new SE in 2025. Should be cheap. The First issue I don’t know about so can’t respond (torrenting).
