So I am planning on buying an ipad, never owned one before. I have always been an android guy and from what I have heard Ipad os or ios is pretty restrictive in nature so I was wondering how much does it hamper the piracy experience. For example on android I can torrent files of any nature or size without any restrictions and sideload the apk's of paid apps to enjoy them for free, can I still do all this on an ipad or should I just drop the idea and get an android tablet instead ?

Don't bother. My iPad pro is gathering dust as even loading a simple manga reader requires hours of work, patreon subscriptions and it breaks all the time.

Killed any interest I had in Apple ecosystem when my 1k usd + device is being held hostage by some corporate knobbers.

Wut? Paperback allows you to get any manga from scan sources like Mangadex, with reading list / read status support, and is available on the App Store.
