MODERATORS
I mean what do you expect us to do? We have 0 power but to choose what's available. I didn't really choose pixel but after spending a week or 2 researching, it was obvious its the only choice available to me. I believe nothing also allow you to run custom ROM without voiding warranty but the latest model didn't have any ROM I wanted.
Which mobile are you talking about when you say "the latest model"?
The problem as I see it, is the lack of discourse around the situation on Android forums (granted, I haven't looked that far into obscure sources/boards). The vast majority just seems OK about relying on Google for this. What are we going to do when Google shuts us out?
Nothing being the name of the phone company, latest model referring to whatever their newest model is
Nothing is a phone company made by ex owner of oneplus with nothing phone 2 being their latest model. And for the other one, nothing as well. We cant do anything but suck it up when google says fuck u but with a such a significant user base buying it for the custom ROM its unlikely. If they still choose to do it for some reason we literally can't do anything and they definitely don't give a shot about what a small group of people shout at them from distance. And if u really want something else, you should be the one putting in some effort. You can't just ask people to riot at a bunch of companies with no focus and sit by the sidelines but as I said, it will not get anywhere. It sucks but reality often is disappointing.
