What do you mean by ‘there’s no open source scene’?

I don’t understand what open source has to do with this.

“Only”? the last two releases doesn’t bode well for the next release. And the whole point would be to have flagship specs and custom ROMs. Releases older than two years don’t have flagship specs anymore.

Right, but Sony doesn’t unlock their bootloader (on US devices) anymore.

Am I missing something? In the US I can’t buy the 1V and get the bootloader unlocked by Sony. Or did that change?

The hardware of Sony phones has been so attractive over the years. I had the Z3 & XZ1 years ago and they were great.

However, the software is lacking. They don’t commit to long term OS/security updates.

The price is also far too high for just a slab.

This means that there are no ROMs that support recent flagship Sony devices.

Honestly they don’t have to lower the price. If they just opened up the software I would make the jump.

I’m holding onto the OnePlus 7 Pro for dear life because newer devices feel like such a compromise; great hardware and software is locked down to hinder ROM development or great ROM support and weak hardware.

Duh?

For at least the last 30 years, the world has been designed around Just in Time manufacturing, which keeps as little raw material in stock as possible.

From a practical sense, they don’t. The IDF has a history of protecting violent settlers who attack Palestinians and will attack those Palestinians if they try to defend themselves.

The US would absolutely not send defensive weapons to Palestinians. The US government is too close to the Israeli government.

Even at this moment the US says they don’t approve of how Israel is waging this war, while they’re using weapons the US sent them…
