I noticed this when I switched to an old iPhone (11) after my phone finally broke down after using android for the last 10 years. I'm liking it so far but it really opened my eyes how much the apple ecosystem is embedded in the OS, and through that likewise with the google apps on android. On iOS i noticed how the OS is very opinionated on how you use it, and I guess that's fine for most users, it's just kind of scary to think about how news and other information is curated by the algorithms before we get to see it. And also how locked into the ecosystem you become if you always follow the OS suggestions and just start using Apple Calendar/Keychain/Maps etc. It's understandable the company wants to make a profit and that the primary objective isn't to make hard- or software that is best for the user, but it still makes me feel a bit "uneasy".
