        If these supported phones I actually wanted I’d consider it. Even better if they weren’t a pain in the ass to install.

          I recently installed GrapheneOS on a pixel 7 pro. Waaaay easier than lineageOS. As long as you have the drivers installed on your pc and opposable thumbs, it’s a breeze.

            Problem is that I bought a 5a and had the screen die just out of the extended warranty and they wouldn’t help me out. Giving money to Google is always a mistake, never again.

      Imagine buying a piece of hardware knowing full well that doesn’t work the way you want it to and then bitching that it doesn’t work the way you want it to

        There are no phone OSes that work the way we want, so we should just never say anything, as consumers?

          LineageOS does pretty well for me. Don’t know what youre talking about.
