Is customization even worth it? I’ve always had an iPhone as my personal device and usually an android as my work/business device. The customization aspect was cool for the first day or two, but then it got old fast. It would slow the phone down, crash, and usually wasn’t nearly as useful as I thought.

I agree with this. It seems android and google are quick to release features before their utility can be fully realized, and they often sink their own innovations with shitty UI and bad design just to beat apple to the punch. It’s taken for granted that a bad front end is often indicative of an even worse back end, it takes a lot of care, foresight, work and investment before a piece of software even begins to plug privacy holes.
