Do you root or do you go straight to ROMs?

Meanwhile the custom features that I used to want became mostly standard within Android.

See, I'm the opposite.

I never used to flash ROMs or root my phone until Android 11. I won't tolerate a device that tells me what I can and can't access in the file explorer when I was previously able to. I won't accept an Android OS that removes features I used and puts up barriers. And there are many things LineageOS let's me do that stock won't. Settings that get hidden and functions that get removed.
