Man, this is looking really appealing:

• Headphone jack!
• Great global and US network support
• "Honest" marketing of its cameras (lol!)
• Huge :(

Now the only thing that's missing is if it's reasonably easily rootable, so I'll keep an eye on this phone.

What's the status of rooting the Zenfone 10?

Last I saw it was some abomination where you need to wait a month and need Asus's windows tool?

No 3.5mm jack 😢

I changed my editorial to reflect that :)

Sputnikglobe.com is headquartered in Moscow according to their about page.

I would have probably bought and imported this already if it weren't for the lack of headphone jack. :(

No, the Kremlin is sometimes able to say things, that, uh, may conflict with reality.

Yes, and I love it.

I use mailjet as a proxy on outgoing emails so that I get fewer of my sent messages rejected, which works.

Federation refers to how all the independent websites agree on a common protocol, which permits decentralization.

This is probably an example of Synecdoche, where "Kremlin" means "officials of the government".

The relevance of my post was very brief

If you need to ask their permission, which they can cut off at any time, and you need their custom software, which they could break at any time, then I might argue that they don't generally have bootloader unlocking.

No, I only write plain text emails, mailjet only has ip addresses that are generally not blocked by the big providers and they do all the DCIM stuff.
