Real question. I would like to know what drives you to hate Apple? (In terms of privacy of course because in terms of price it’s another story).

You cant use standard parts in there hardware

You certainly can use 3rd party chargers

Possibly linux

No you can’t really as lightning requires you to pay royalties to Apple. It isn’t a open connector. You can’t even get anything faster than USB2 speeds.

iPhones have USB-C now……

Only the most recent ones and everything but the “pro” model doesn’t support anything but USB 2.

Not that it matters though as it is still a locked down ecosystem.

Fair, but now that they’re using USB-C that’s a temporary thing.

Also most people don’t need USB 3 speeds on their phones anyway because they don’t really plug them into anything that will take advantage of those speeds.

I realize some people do, and for those people the pro is the answer to that.

It seems like you just keep moving the goalpost to keep having a reason to hate Apple.

I connect peripherals to my phone. You can’t do that with a iphone

Yes. I can, and I do.

Why do you keep moving the goalpost?
