We slowly fix problems below and above the OS. But there is very much left to do in the OS itself, like no access to drivers or any low-level interfaces.

*if you ignore the shitfest it is with mandating play store/play services, bricking phones, google screwing up Pixel updates, a fiasco of some sort with each Pixel iteration, Samsung literally adding shit to macro shots and calling it “AI”.

Android isn’t a silver bullet it’s made out to be.

Android is neither silver nor bullet, it’s pure gold next to the pile of poo with a chewed apple on top.

just get a pixel and put lineage on it, works perfectly and has none of these downsides

i have two ultimately minor complaints: no sd card slot and no headphone jack, the first isn’t a huge issue especially not for the average person and the latter being solved with an adapter, and also isn’t really a big issue since there’s more than enough battery that charging at the same time isn’t needed.

Android, not the pre-installed shit.
