    This is why I didn’t bother switching to GOS, Lineage, Calyx etc despite being sick of Apple’s anti-foss monopoly — marketed as Privacy™️ and Security™️ — for years.

    Bullshit. If you liked so much your freedom and privacy you would have many opportunities to use open source ROMs. You chose to stay on your iPhone because it was easy.

    Also absolutely not believing you when you say that you anticipated the rug pull and chose to “not bother” for that reason. What a poor excuse for staying and supporting the closed ecosystem of Apple.

    After already having to change my services and workflows multiple times over the last 2 decades

    I can’t believe someone who has been for years on an iPhone would pretend they are an ardent defender of freedom and open source.

      Sure thing, buddy. Nice gate keeping high horse ya got there. FOSS is sure to attract more users with humble geniuses such as yourself antagonizing them. Do you also use Arch, btw?

      “If you don’t spend hundreds of hours switching from big tech corp controlled platform A — you’ve used for almost 20 years — to switch to big tech corp controlled platform B, you obviously don’t support freedom and open source”

      I actually contribute to the development of open source projects. Do you create/give value, or are you just a taker/user? … Or are you just salty you couldn’t see this highly predictable result coming a mile away?

        The never-ending purity tests are so exhausting. “You’re not a real vegan, you eat fermented food which kills the yeast!”
