From what has been explained to me in some other posts, the issue is that most probably this will land on AOSP level from which all de-Googled androids fork. And with Linux phones not quite ready yet (I'm observing https://liberux.net/ though) that leaves us at their mercy
LOL AdAway blocked liberux.net wtf😂 but thanks! The specs are surprisingly good too! :O
