I feel like the biggest difference by far is that most amphetamines are prescribed in XR formulations these days. The feeling caused by a slow trickle of product from a laser-drilled capsule or time-release beads over 8-12 hours is incomparable to the rush of smoking or snorting powdered amphetamine. For a lot of drugs the biggest addiction driver is actually the rise rate which causes the “hit”. i.e. compare addictive cigarettes with nearly harmless pipe.
That’s why when people abuse Adderall they usually crush it up and toot it, and they aren’t railing 100 tablets at a go.
Myself I have taken Adderall and now take Dexadrine (it’s cheaper) and have never felt any addictive pull from either. When I go camping I always take a multi-day break and never feel any ill effects other than a desire to chase squirrels and bother strangers with excessive chat.
I always bring some with me though so I can take one on the last day and effectively pack up my campsite without leaving anything behind, lol
