I want to add how much difficult Apple makes it to delete content in general from an iPhone. Deleting simple things like email, which are just a swipe away on Android, are notoriously difficult on the native email app, simply because Apple doesn't give a fuck. And this is the company touted as some design genius? I think it's all a ploy to just grab more users for iCloud, or get users to upscale to a higher storage on their next iPhone.

Not sure what exactly you’re talking about, because deleting an email (from the mailbox list) is a long swipe to the left on iOS/iPadOS too, unless you have changed the settings for that to archive the mail instead of deleting. It has been this way for a very long time.
This thread has me feeling like I'm taking crazy pills. There are many things people can plausibly criticize Apple about, but these aren't among them.
These complaints sound like the equivalent of "Apple won't let you use your own email server", or "Safari only loads apple.com web pages". Can't archive photos? Can't delete emails? Are these people even talking about the same iPhone I have that can do all those things?
