I used to do this back when I was on Android and official updates only lasted 1-2 years. Now I’m on an iPhone I get official OS updates for such a long time I don’t need to worry about flashing custom roms.

I want root reliably.

Every version of Lineage offers rooted debugging, even without Magisk.

I know that root can be obtained in iOS, but Apple really prefers that users be restrained from this capability.
