What are some things you can/should cheap out on?

Mr. Forager@lemmy.world to Asklemmy@lemmy.ml – 275 points –

I often hear, "You should never cheap out on a good office chair, shoes, underpants, backpack etc.." but what are some items that you would feel OK to cheap out on?

This can by anything from items such as: expensive clothing brands to general groceries.

I second this, especially with Android you can breath new life into a phone by installing a custom ROM

Damn right. I bought myself a redmi note 12 last year and now I am back to using my 5 year old OnePlus 6 with lineage OS as it just runs better somehow.

You should try replacing LineageOS with DivestOS, it's a much more secure build of Los.

Also, the oneplus 6 is such a great phone

What if my phone isn't supported by any ROMs? Is there an easier alternative to building it for your device on your own, following the given instructions, for example?

Sadly the best bet is to only buy devices that you know have good custom ROM support

I'm in that situation right now with my OnePlus N10, the plan is to buy a second hand device that is supported by LineageOS
