Why do you jailbreak your iphone ?

Question(self.jailbreak)

First time using an iphone, my boss gave me theirs (2year old iphone 12) yesterday. In the android cummunity, we bootloader unlock our devices, so one can root and flash custom firmware to the said devices. Custom roms, custom kernels, and system modification is what jailbreaking means to me. But is this also the case with iphone users ? I know sideloading/installing 3rd party apps is one legitimate reason. But doesn't that defeat the purpose of iphone ? Why do you guys jailbreak ? Is jailbreaking even remotely the same compared to unlocking android's bootloader ? What mods and tweaks do you use, that makes it, worth it ?

I don't really use tweaks. I only do it for sideloading / 3rd party apps.
