Sam Howell<p>I'm very close to deciding to ditch <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/LineageOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>LineageOS</span></a> and <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/customROMs" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>customROMs</span></a> generally in favour of the stability and reduced hassle of a new and supported <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Android</span></a> phone. Recent changes seem to indicate <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Samsung" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Samsung</span></a> and co are making it even harder for custom ROMs and may soon completely block their use. I feel like their days are numbered. One of the main reasons I'm debating this is the ongoing banking apps issue; they're increasingly fussy about unlocked bootloaders etc.</p>
