Hello, I just recently got my iPhone 13 and it already has a big and deep scratch. It is that deep that the pixels are kinda rainbow. The scratch isn’t thick and it is kinda invisible if you don’t focus on it. Should I change the screen? Although I am not able to afford a genuine screen repair, is it worth it to go with an alternative screen or should I just live with it?

Should I change the screen?
Your decision. I would, but that's me.

No, a non-genuine Apple screen will not perform the same. You will see a message about an "unknown part" on your phone....which will not go away.....AND....Apple will refuse to even look at your phone if you need future service. The phone will have zero trade in value as well.
If you cannot afford to repair the phone correctly, then best to live with things as they are.
For best results, only have a repair done by an Apple Store or Apple authorized service center. I would suggest that you get an appointment at an Apple Store for an evaluation and possible repair if needed.
This is a serious problem. Your choices are live with it or get the screen repaired. If and when you can afford it, do the repair.
