    Just wondering, why wouldn’t you want to run Android? AOSP is fully open source, google free, and runs on linux anyways, these other OSs are just bound to be buggier…

      AOSP is a huge set of unknown. Despite it’s Linux, it’s not like my Arch where I can contribute to the OS. There are arbitrary security measures against the user protecting the device maker, not the user. Where’s my sudo command, where’s my terminal?

      Android is fucking garbage, I’d rather use Windows. Unfortunately, other mobile OSes are somehow even worse.

        Android is worse than windows?
