I was an Apple fanboy too, but with all the bootlicking they've been doing, I have a feeling they will create a backdoor for Trump admin to use. I've jumpe to Pixel 9a with Graphene OS. I like it so far.
I wouldn't go so far as to say a backdoor, but I do see them removing apps at Trump's behest. In fact they've already done so (and so did Google), the ICE stuff.
The future isn't apps that are curated by an app store, it's on the web where they can't easily control it. They'll need to block it at the network level, but a VPN could get around it. Then it's 100% on the user.
