I had really thought it would just a tiny bit more difficult than installing Linux on a Windows computer, but apparently I’ll have to learn a lot before trying everything. Thanks for your help 👍
Sometimes it's really simple, like installing GrapheneOS on a Pixel - that's the only one I've done recently and it's incredibly smooth compared to the old days where you had to run some dodgy software to find a root exploit to even get a custom bootloader. But yeah, you're at the mercy of the manufacturer even making it modifiable, and that's before you find a community of enthusiasts who want to tinker with a particular device!
