I’m so confused… Do you think android and/or windows users use sudo? That’s a Linux thing… Macs run on an off-shoot of Linux.
Android and iOS are very similar to all “basic” users. Android simply allows super users (ironically this is related to sudo) to use commands if they reeeaaally want to. Although, to be fair, you need an unlocked phone for that.
Normies, are just allowed third party apps like ReVanced that let you skip YouTube ads for free. Do you not like that ability? If so, you can pay. Google loves that. Google owns Android. We’ve done a loop-dee-loop now, I do believe.
I admittedly know less about Android today. But I chose iOS when Android was quite bad. With iPhone I am not afraid, for example that if I lose or break it, then I need to spend any significant amount of time to setup new iPhone. Couple clicks and the new phone is in exactly in the same state as the old one. Same apps, same files, everything. Maybe Android become better today, I do not know for sure. But I heard enough of the stories from my friends about difficulties because the new Android phone runs Android of different version than the old phone, so, some programs are missing, some things are different and so on.
With Windows, while it is also becoming better, it is still plagued with some hardware driver bugs, etc. For half a year, for example, my computer would just refuse to go to sleep automatically. I tried everything I could find on internet - no luck. Then one day, it just fixed itself for no reason. The update system also for some reason fails to install some updates. And the sound output constantly switches to monitor speakers which I do not have.
My iMacs - zero issuers. They just work. My iPhones - zero issues. My iPads - zero issues. Single convenient ecosystem. Oh, add Apple Watch there as well.

That is exactly how Android phones work as well, and they have for many years. I think my last phone that needed a third party app to do things like transfer contacts was the Samsung Galaxy S4 (2013).
I recommend you check out the competition. I say this purely because I want more consumers to be critical of big brands and their latest offerings. If everyone intelligently assessed devices when they came out without a bias, I genuinely believe all of the devices we use (Apple, Google, Samsung, etc.) would be far better in just about every way, including their price.
Instead, Apple has set a long-standing precedent amongst the majority of their user-base that their devices are so good you don’t need to compare them against their own competition. This has been so successful that it’s led to other companies like Samsung and Google to adopting Apple “design choices” (non-replacable batteries, sealing devices so they are difficult or impossible to repair, removing the headphone jack, etc.) that end up being incredibly bad for all of us consumers.
The latest phones these days are a joke. Google, Apple, Samsung… they are pretty much ALL jokes that are nearly identical to the previous years model.

You are talking about hardware. I am talking about ecosystem.
