    That’s true. I use LineageOS to get at least OS updates, but firmware is definitely problematic. I just wished mobile hardware would be more generic like in Desktop PCs, that would solve a lot of problems.

      Let’s go back to thicc boi phones like the 80s and we could have some pretty sick homebrew options

      Or hell, why not a modern bucket phone? Build it out in a box with a Bluetooth headset and 3.5mm passthrough
