Of course there is. To circumvent this closed apple-esque bullshit you can just install magisk.
- SXX 7y agoMy point is that Android as platform don't have this feature and it's vendor only care about interests of carriers, pro-DRM media companies and own ads business. Magisk is never ending cat and mouse game and at any moment Google can just add some hardware-backed privileged rootkit that not going to be easy to bypass. So it's not always usable for every app out there.
- gear54rus 7y agoWell yes it's another toxic business, that only cares about profits, news at 11. The difference is that the good part of the community tries to unlock the platform's true potential instead of chanting "walled garden means safety" and "you don't actually have that use case". And that part of the community has advanced tremendously. It's in the mindset.
