Android is such shit. How has no one built an alternative?

Cheap shit for the poor folk. I afford Android, not iOS. 🤷 To read a few messages, it's good.

Yeah android works fine for most things there’s just some technical limitations that are very annoying

You should see technical limitations for a €120 Samsung. And that's the price when it was new, about a year ago. 🤦 Thinking about it, "technical limitations" is an understatement.

Well I mean in terms of software, specifically newer versions of android killing background processes.

Can’t deny that the cheapest phones are android. I understand why people buy them

I think that is controllable via Battery Optimization no?

No, you can disable battery optimization but it doesn’t affect the process limit. It’s like 16 processes or something.

Oh fr? Shiiiit. And this is something new. Darn.

Oh my that is AIDS

It’s mostly only a problem when you want to emulate Linux on android, and who tf does that anyway.

Still would be nice to be able to disable it

Termux is useful but it sucks as that they do that

By the way I’ve had a few Pixel phones, I don’t hate android, but it could be way better. I like iPhone but iOS is so limiting even if it performs better.

I basically want an iPhone with a FOSS OS that maintains the design philosophy of iOS but with the openness of android/linux, without being based on android due to the technical limitations

How so?

Stock Android is actually amazing, I love it. Haven't used it in sometime though.

It automatically kills background processes which makes emulating Linux impossible. Couple other things too

I have a pixel 6 pro with lineageOS btw, I use an iPhone 15 pro max daily

Forget stock Android, reclaim your sovereignty and install GrapheneOS.

That is the way. 🫡⚡

My pixel has rooted LineageOS. Not sure why I went with lineage at the time.

Rn I use an iPhone because I prefer the AirPods and watch over the google alternatives. Also the pixel had overheating problems

I want to to a clean boot with graphene and no GApps package

Or that!

HNY android hater!

I’ve had more android phones than I have iPhones
