Please don't assume what I wanna force or not.
I don't need a new CPU for windows, but windows wants it.
Similar with phones, I am forced to buy a glued brick each 3 years (2 years now, woohoo). And I don't need a "new video" each week from my favourite creator, one good video once in a while is ok for me. Carbon capture is not even working properly yet, but we already pushing it as a solution. Probably solution would be "it releases more CO2 in the end, but you are forced to buy it, and it would make great profit to people involved in it".
- sgift 3y ago> Please don't assume what I wanna force or not. That's why I wrote that if you want to force people you should argue for it and not that you do want to. Please, don't accuse me of things I didn't write. Personally, I don't think carbon capture will work very well either, but I don't see why my position should be more valid than kurzgesagts. Or why mine isn't propaganda, but theirs is.
- Moomoomoo309 3y agoYou're not forced if you use a more open ROM of Android, like LineageOS. You can even keep using Google apps. Many phone models will keep getting updates on custom ROMs years after their stock image does.
- 63stack 3y agoInstalling LineageOS involves unlocking the bootloader and/or acquiring root, which will make several applications (mostly banking, but afaik some streaming apps as well) refuse to launch, because your phone now trips SafetyNet (which is "yet another thing I don't need, but have to pay for").
