Who is praising Game Freak? The video is quite critical of the studio.

Kinda looks like a Rareware game, although maybe I'm just making that connection because I played Donkey Kong 64 as a kid.

It's the Orbit clock in the Kvaesitso launcher (one of the stock options). And yes, the icon pack is Arcticons, although I also use Alembicons to create icons for apps that aren't currently supported by Arcticons.

I do something similar on my phones. The screen turns on to a blank page with just the time and alarm/media playback information.

To access my applications I swipe left. I've made the icons monochrome and removed their names so I rely on search to find and open the app I want. This makes app launching less of an addictive reflex and more of a conscious decision each time.

I wouldn't be surprised if Choice fucked this test up. The wide range of results from the Cancer Council products was very strange.

Only because he forfeited it.

whom I talk to and what websites I visit, maybe every single keystroke if the keyboard does weird things for machine learning or backing up word lists in the cloud...

None of this has anything to do with custom ROMs vs stock Android. These are all problems at the application and settings level and can be solved without changing the operating system.

Most of those are extremely simple. I don't get why people shit their pants when they see the words "command line". You are following basic instructions and copy/pasting text; you would need to be illiterate or braindead to get tripped up by it.

I would probably hold off on buying a phone specifically for the purposes of installing a custom ROM on it, but existing users are fine for now. If you have an older phone that is no longer receiving updates then it is still worth seeing what's out there. Custom ROM installation is generally extremely simple and quick these days so there is little in the way of risk or time commitment.
