I used to be the same but honestly arch has been way more stable and easier to use than fedora ever was.

Yeah but it’s a us based company

Both e/os and graphene are android

“root detection” is not actually detecting root as that is very difficult it’s detecting an unlocked bootloader or modified software that didn’t come on your phone(like a custom rom such as graphene os)

Not with the current trump administration. They can do whatever they want

Honestly dude she just needs to be more careful like this is a easy thing to not do

This is a different sideloading. The sideloading you are talking about is installing apks this is where you download a software update zip file and then sideload the update to the device to either upgrade or downgrade the os. This also has nothing to do with Google as their phones still have this capability

Yea kinda but look at apple. There has never been any freedom to do what you want with their phones and people have loved them. While you and I as enthusiasts may move to another platform because of stuff like this most people don’t even know about it.

In this case though the 9a is the exact same as the 10a except the 10a has a slightly higher brightness screen and you can get a refurbished excellent 9a for $160 less than a 10a

It will probably be faster because it is essentially the same device as the 9a the only differences that might affect software are that the screen has a slightly higher brightness and it has slightly higher charging speed. Everything else is the same even the soc

Ok you’re almost there. It is plenty fast for people in Europe but it is slow for those in Asia. So bandwidth is not the issue

It’s not really complicated at all you just download the tailscale app make an account and then hit share to your friends. That’s how I run a Minecraft server for me and my friends because I was too lazy to figure out how to port forward. It was easier to just sudo apt install tailscale and essentially be done.

Just use tailscale and don’t forward any ports and you’ll be fine

This is so sick

It is only getting security patches until 2028. Honestly that doesn’t matter much though because of the strong custom ROM support. It’s underpowered for pretty much anything and everything. Any heavier emulation will struggle and I could disregard that but when you can get a OnePlus pad 2 for a similar price and you get an soc that is an integer factor faster it’s just not a good option.

Only issue is that would only get about another year of updates and it was underpowered at the time and even moreso now

yeah I agree it’s dumb but it is a tri fold. Heres a picture of a trifold

I agree dude it’s so annoying people just not understanding the metric system

I was in you exact same situation with a OnePlus 9 a few months ago and I got a pixel 9 on sale a bit before the 10 came out and I really like it. Can only recommend as a replacement for the OnePlus 9

Dude that’s china only and is the standard there. OnePlus phones are just oppo phones with a different coat of paint and this is what oppo phones are
