i'm not forcing you to sideload. It's immoral to not own your device fully, not being able to install what you want, even if it can hurt you if you don't have the skills is also immoral

@a-user-you-like yes, it's immoral, you guessed it right, just like many other things in this world but are still happening and I hold the same opinion with other systems, be that smartwatches, infotainmens car systems or any other stuff. I don't expect sideload/firmware replace to be safe/easy, but I expect to be able to do this on things I own

It’s immoral that the device you bought fully knowing its capability, didn’t have the set of options you wanted? That’s entitled, especially when there’s a phone with the exact feature you’re looking for.

yeah if you want an open phone buy an android one and run an open os like grapheneOS
