We're getting close to the point where "running a stock ROM" is on the same level of inadvisable as "using a web browser without ad blocking". The latter of which was, btw, also not that big if a deal like ten or fifteen years ago.
It was sort of a big deal. The forbes malware injection attack by ads was ten years ago. It still ranks as one of the most hilarious 'poetic irony' bits in computer security. I'm sure ads were doing other insidious shit in 2010 that just went unnoticed because it didn't hit security researchers.
Praying for some stronger ROM support for foldables. As soon as ATT lets my phone go free (2 year contract) installing one would be the first thing I do, except my phone is a Razr Ultra 2025 and I can't even find much for the Z flip let alone the razrs.
For now though mullvad stays on with dns blocking and I just keep to Fdroid and Aurora store if needed, not sure what else I can do
Same. I've never seen any alternatives available for my Z Flip. I'm thinking I'll go with a Linux phone next time I need a new one. I don't care anymore if they're "ready" or not.
