• Wait for real Linux phones to become viable and use that in a couple years

God, as a GOS user I want this so bad. I know I can buy used, but having that G on the back of my phone feels dirty. I refuse to go back to Apple, Samsung sucks ass, and I don’t want Chinese phones, so I’m stuck here. But I want to be free.

I keep bitching about my Galaxy Tab A9+ and I will till the day I die. I fucking hate that thing for not having any Custom ROMs, and I despise the fact that it doesn’t allow OEM unlocking (afaik). I mean, it was a gift, so I still appreciate it, but MAN will I never buy Samsung with my own money ever.

Anyway I wish people would stop crying for Samsung Graphene while knowing full well that Samsung is essentially the Apple of the Android world; Locked down to all hell.

It’d be nice to not have to buy Google anything, but i want security, to be able to use most pf my apps, and I don wanna buy a Chinese phone, so here we are.

GDPR is nice and all, but people have been fighting chat control and all its hydra heads for years now, so no.

But I’m an American so what do I know?
