But can it run a degoogled Android rom well?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

not sure. stacking niches means there's a good chance the answer is no though.

if it's just a matter of specs it should be up to it, the hardware is pretty beefy for a phone, but I figure there's more to it than that.

personally I don't have the spoons to pour in the effort required to degoogle. the fact that the algs and few ads I see are completely irrelevant to me suggest that I have thoroughly confused them by how non-standard my internet usage is. I'm not overly concerned about the data they do get or what they do with it.

there are enough Man-Made Horrors Beyond My Comprehension™️ keeping me up at night but you do you

The old jelly pro had a decent modding community, and I definitely was able to unlock the bootloader and root it, though not sure about degoogling.
