The linked post is incorrect, Apple Music doesn't touch or replace any local files. iTunes Match has also been DRM-free since launch.

WhatsApp runs on devices with iOS 12 or newer, that means even an iPhone 6 can still run it.

These two are not the same thing. Every app is allowed to serve you personalized ads, without asking. ATT is about cross app/site tracking between other companies, which is something Apple has never done.

Low power mode wasn't enabled by default on my machine.

I have found AMP to be an awful experience. It messes with native scrolling physics, pages are often incomplete or straight up broken. It also disables Reader mode on iOS so I'm always forced to load the full web page anyway. Luckily iOS 15 web extensions have solved that problem.

FWIW Amplosion (paid iOS extension to automatically redirect AMP pages) is quite highly ranked on the app store.

It clearly isn't only techies that dislike it so much that they actually pay to get rid of AMP.
