I'm sorry, is it that weird of a feeling to want a company that pretty much has a single successful product to invest in it when it's an important part of the internet and in constant usage decline?

Android 13. Looking in the other replies, it seems pretty wide spread.

If nobody cared, nobody would have replied in the first place.

Also, must be sad to decide to engage based on the karma farm you'll get, but good for you I guess...?

You should stop using products for ethical reasons

Yes, that's why I don't use Firefox. I don't like companies that give their CEOs the entirety of goodwill donations and use the vast majority of the rest of the money they make on companies with empty descriptions to give speeches and whatever instead of really investing in their technology to stop having stupid bugs and maybe even be better enough than Chrome to give normies a reason to use it.

Yep, I have it on my Poco F5 with MIUI and a friend that has a Galaxy S23 with stock OS also has the same issue.

[-] Rocha@lm.put.tf 1 points 1 year ago

I believe the reason they do this is because some resellers were unlocking the bootloader and installing a ROM with malware and selling that off to unsuspecting customers. This delay (and needing to be registered with a phone number) makes that process both impractical and easy to detect.

This is true, but also really stupid. The resellers that insert malicious roms into their phones always manage to get a privileged account from someone at Xiaomi that allows for instant bootloader unlock, so only legit customers get screwed by this.

It's a bit shitty, but it still works. You need to link your Xiaomi account with Mi Unlocker in the dev settings and then wait from 3 days to 1 month.

But since I do that when I first get the phone, by the time I want to install a custom rom, it's ready.

Never said they didn't, but Firefox does as well and the duality of criteria is astonishing.

[-] Rocha@lm.put.tf -5 points 1 year ago

What if I told you... this isn't a Google product?

(Lemmy is full of Communists from what I've seen)

Yes, it is. But I always thought those were the ones pearl clutching at edgy jokes, specially nazi related.
