    Bruh screw android and its updates, it fucked up and it keeps getting worse, its updates are very occasional, at least if they were worthy then fine i’m with ya, but no, they are just junk, they slow down my phone and are many times buggy; it keep restricting users and developers under the term of ‘security’, go fuck ur security, I know what I’m doing, either gimme full control over my property or fuck off. This is MA phone NOT urs!

    When I get a new phone, I’ll either find a way to get an old android version like v10, or just find another system.

      I’m not going to spend good money on another Android phone and because of this. I used to be willing to tolerate it to some extent but I’m done now. Any further Android devices are going to be low-end burner phones for a specific needs that I can’t meet otherwise. Having a Linux phone is now a matter of necessity not something that would be nice to have

      Is 2026 going to be the year of the Linux handheld? /s

      (No, Android is no more a Linux OS than the PlayStation is a BSD fork.)

        I highly doubt 2026 will be the year of the Linux handheld. But if Linux on the desktop continues growing the way it currently is, it could lay the groundwork for Linux on handhelds.

          Realistically, I don’t think any year will be the year when Linux for mobile takes off, ironically for the same reason why Windows Phone failed, and that is app availability, or the “will my banking app work on it?” problem.

          We really can’t find a sincere friendly OS like Linux. I wish Linux and other friendly phone systems had more hardware support. Android is dominating with its “I’m the ruler” philosophy, bc Google knows the alternatives are limited.
