I thought of that and looked through the steps to do it and I'm pretty sure I'm past the age of me wanting to try. There was a day it would have been something I couldn't wait to do but I'm pretty sure I'm ~10 years past that day.
Hooray for being too old to give a shit! Retired mobile developer here; I have people regularly show me how to do things like tap-and-hold the space bar to position the cursor. I’d rather be outside going for a hike than fooling around with my phone, of all things.
Yeah, there's a bit of a barrier. But getting it actually installed is a breeze. Chromium browser that supports WebUSB is all you need to get it flashed.
Them sure are pretty words. I feel like I'll get myself in a lot of trouble with a bricked phone.
I know it sounds intimidating, but the install page walks you through the process step by step. As long as the browser can see your phone, you can flash it with a few button clicks.
