Indeed, Ryanair's planes are mainly pretty new, and not bad to travel
on at all.

No reclining seats,

I like that, it means the person in front can't invade my personal
space.

no pouch in the back of the previous seats,

Why is that a problem? All they have in them is a magazine and...

instructions printed onto the back of each seat,

....safety instructions that are more obvious glued to the seatback.

surly staff,

They aren't the best, I agree. But they aren't any worse than the
majority of bus/train employees.

and possibly standing room only in the future.

Chatter, chatter. [Although in fact you've fallen for yet another bit of
Ryanair virus marketing. They know it would never be allowed to have pax
stood in the aisles, even if the fare was lower. Gets them more media
exposure though, which is exactly what they want.]

I'm just wondering how this doesn't differ from the Tube.

The Tube seems very popular.
