> I think android phones aren’t for the tech illiterate.
As an Android user, I think I'm on-board with this sentiment. Anecdotally, most of the people I know with Android phones are in IT; specifically software engineers.
I once had to transfer files that were downloaded on my phone to a work laptop that couldn't access the external internet and no access to external storage. I installed Termux on my Android phone, dropped to the linux terminal, installed http-server and spun up a server on the local network. I was then able to download the files I needed off of my phone.
Quirky scenarios like the one I mentioned where I can "MacGyver" my Android phone is why I really like the platform. And then there's F-Droid so I don't have to deal with those pesky apps from the Google Play store.
