> knowing that i can quickly change accounts and apps and "gardens" makes it better That's what the app store diversity push / legislation is about to me. We're in a dangerous place where Apple is hardware locked to a single distribution channel (and its rules) & Android is heavy pushed towards a single distribution channel (and its rules). It only takes a single round of bad legislation to get from there to "Your phone only runs what we say it can run." Ironically, China has more diversity in app stores than everywhere else. |

Are they all the same 3 apps the government approves of?

I completely agree and hope apple gets pushed around until it opens up the hardware. I don't care (from a practical, non philosophical level) about APIs or federation or interoperable clients as long as i can just try something new. I have yet to find a single person who can talk with me over Matrix but a dozen who prefer signal.
