With the recent changes to how Google is doing things with Android, is it even worth it anymore? Should I just accept whatever version of Android comes with whatever phone or are custom ROMs still worth it? Assuming they still exist after all of this, idk what’s going on.

    If you don’t think about privacy, they are not worth it anymore imo. Used to run custom roms on everything, but galaxy OS (or w/e it’s called) and pixel OS do everything you might want and more. Custom roms don’t add anything anymore.

    On a Chinese device though, I will always install a custom rom if I can. Unfortunately it’s getting really hard or even impossible to unlock bootloader on most devices from China :(. They have amazing hardware, but shit software.
