Even with android custom ROMs like Lineage, support eventually ends. Meanwhile, you can just slap on linux onto any old computer and its still getting the latest updates. 🤔

Why not just do the same thing with phones? Forever phone updates? 👀

    It wasn’t slowing down the phones at different battery percentages, they were essentially derating the hardware under the premise of battery management, and iirc they got called out and said “you’re right, but buy new phones anyway, yours are old.” I don’t recall the specifics, but it just seemed super shady.
