I've hated the entire concept of a protected ecosystem and that's always kept me from their stuff. Let me install things as I please. If you want to sell apps, fine but make it a choice.
My mindset goes way back though. I remember some 25 years ago having to talk my dad into dropping AOL for a barebones ISP. Or perhaps the reason I generally hate Steam, Epic, Battle.net or whatever else all the same. I don't want your bullshit disguised as features.

The late 90s to early 00s were the golden age of freedom. It only went downhill from there.
