With the recent changes to how Google is doing things with Android, is it even worth it anymore? Should I just accept whatever version of Android comes with whatever phone or are custom ROMs still worth it? Assuming they still exist after all of this, idk what’s going on.

    I have no alternative but used phone + lineageOS; the stuff you’re mentioning (new phone with whatever crap they installed on there) isn’t even on my radar as an option.

    as to longevity, it’s a stop-gap to hold us over until postmarketOS or any of its brethren are ready. banking on the benevolence of evilcorp to give us this thing for free for ever isn’t a viable strategy.
