So that's why there weren't any open source apps on iOS. When I started my degoogling journey I got an iPhone to try out the grass on the other side. But i was sorely disappointed by both the low quality of the apps and the lack of open source alternatives.

There is some, but it's mostly large projects with a lot of funding. There's some oss projects on the app store that cost money as a way to cover the fee

Don't forget about apple aggressively blocking any form of sideloading for a while

There are some open source iOS apps. VLC, Organic Maps, Psychonaut Journal, NetNewsWire, lots of Lemmy clients.
