As they should. Apple users worldwide are clearly unhappy with the way Apple is handling this. They’re a bit of a laughing stock right now.

Not a single Apple user has complained about this in my circles. Many non-EU are envious though.

IRL, I agree. No one with an iPhone has even brought this up. I only hear about it from users online

I live in the EU with an iPhone. While I do think Apple should just cut the crap and allow side-loading, the only thing I had personally wanted it for on iPhone was access to emulation and better alternative gaming markets. However, I bought a steam deck last month and lost the need for any of that.
