GrapheneOS, a privacy and security-focused Android-based operating system, has posted a series of tweets on X suggesting that Android should introduce frequent auto-reboots to make it harder for forensic software vendors to exploit firmware flaws and spy on the users.
I’d choose a Samsung if it supported graphene, but it is what it is
How does it seem I’m the only person w Samsung issues. I tried a number of galaxy phones on and off from 2010 to ~2018, and every time it’d be great out the box and then feel like a sluggish piece of shit by like 3-6months in. Only mildly helped by resetting the phone. Even when everyone was like “oh no, that use to be a problem, but this time it’s totally different” same old shit.
I’m not sure I could ever buy anything Samsung ever again.
I’ve had samsung phones since the s8 and I have absolutely no idea what you’re on about. Maybe it’s cognitive bias?
I’ve had no reason for such a bias, not that I can think of. Though, my last Samsung might have been the 7, or whichever note came after it.
Looking up the S8, it released April 2017. So maybe I stopped using them around the time you started and that is the reason for the differing experiences.
I haven’t had Samsung in a long time since I went exclusively Pixel just got the custom OS support. I’d imagine hypothetically that if Samsung did have these operating systems, there’d be a lot less bloat and this would be less of an issue. I mainly want the Samsung hardware over my Pixel.
Same.
