Do you root or do you go straight to ROMs?

    I wish Microsoft had stayed in the mobile space. That competition might have changed things for the better.

    Now we have a duopoly.

      @APassenger @GenderNeutralBro I was interested in the mobile Windows 8 back in the day. So I found and bought a used cheap Nokia phone to check it out. I ended up using it as my primary for a few months. The Nokia and Windows were both fantastic! I didn’t stay with it because there were no apps. The Windows store was a stinking infested cesspool of awful and/or malicious apps so I resold it.

      To be fair, Microsoft is one of the most aggressive at checking for root on Android devices. They’re not the good guys here.
