Comment on My internal fight over what device to buy

So a phone you can root to debloat as your second option would probably also be suitable for option 1.
Not always, because LineageOS for example has many unofficial builds (which I’d rather not use), meaning that the bootloader is unlockable but no official LOS image is available… right?

If you stick to official builds, then yeah it’s indeed pretty limited. Maybe building the unofficial ones yourself would alleviate your concerns?
It’s… probably still easier than trying to debloat and put microG on a stock ROM.
Depends on the manufacturer whether I’d rather use the stock ROM or an XDA special I guess.

So you’re suggesting using an unofficial build? How do updates work? The unofficial developer has to rebuild it in order for me to install the update? I have really no idea how all of this work
thanks for your help!
