Tony should make a business of helping people set this sort of thing up for themselves!

7 years is only for Pixel and S24 phones. The vast majority of existing Samsung phones will only get 5 years of security updates.

Most people aren't comfortable with flashing unofficial ROMs onto garbage bin phones. I'm unironically glad that you have rescued a perfectly good phone but that's just not a scalable solution IMO. Buying a used phone that you know has a lineage ROM is a more viable path but you're still back to square one if the battery or port or screen give up on you.

My dude, ISIS was literally burning people alive in cages. That's not even the worst thing they've regularly done. They are literally evil incarnate.

Hamas is not as bad but that's really not saying much. They still actively want to commit genocide. ANYONE who openly calls for genocide is a piece of shit in my book.

Yes of course. The point of this phone is to trade cost/perf/etc for improved repairability and business ethics. Long software support is a prerequisite for repairability being useful.

This phone isn't for people looking primarily for best value.
