#15"Better" is subjective. It's drastically better in some aspects (e.g. flexibility in UI - I cannot stand "just plaster all apps on the home screen" "organisation"; but also user control and feedback (errors mean something, and are shown, not vague spinning wheel until the end of time)), worse in others (privacy controls). Depending on what matters to every person, it could be better or worse for their specific needs…

Yet the open source ecosystem is thriving on Android, whereas it's incredibly cumbersome to use open source apps on iOS.
