Yeah, and thieves are definitely going to use your data rather than sell it anyway

Alright, this is slightly related to the topic at hand:
I think the charging up to 80% is kinda bullshit. I've been using my Redmi Note 10 for 2 years, and during that time I've used the 33W charger and almost always waited until the device was under 10% and charged it to 100%.
I've used AccuBattery and it guessed the battery health was at 85%. This is still more battery left than what I would have if I kept the device between 20~80% charge. So I don't get it
I just flash LineageOS even when the device is currently supported by the OEM. I buy the hardware from them, not the software.
Edit: Like, the vast majority of actual custom ROMs users are either using Pixel Experience or LineageOS, there are a bunch of other ROMs, but those are mostly "purpose built" for enthusiasts of what they offer. Like, GrapheneOS is for security reasons, and things like that.
There is a bit of headache installing custom ROMs, but once you install it, it is usually pretty stable. Also, I don't get the locked vs unlocked bootloader thing in regards to security. The device is stolen and outside your hands, it is doubtful that a thief would go through the steps of flashing a ROM, but wouldn't be smart enough on how to make the device unusable if it had a bootloader locked. Either way you are screwed.
I will copy a comment I made a week ago in another thread:
It was five years after her first Android phone that I noticed that when asked to install an app, my aunt proceeded to download an APK from a random website and installed that rather than using the Play Store. In fact, I think she didn't even know the Play Store was a thing, and she was on her third android phone already.
She isn't tech-savvy, she did that because that is how she did on Windows. After that, I just accepted that things need to change in a way that might annoy me.
That is to say that while the solution found by Google has a bunch of drawbacks, and I'd prefer if old games and unmaintained apps were left alone, I don't think it was a totally wrong decision (this time).

Gostaria apenas de intervir por um momento. O que você está se referindo como BRICS é, na verdade, GNU/BRICS, ou como tenho chamado recentemente, GNU mais BRICS. BRICS não é um sistema operacional em si, mas sim um outro componente gratuito de um sistema GNU totalmente funcional, tornando-se útil graças às bibliotecas principais do GNU, utilitários de shell e componentes vitais do sistema que compõem um sistema operacional completo, conforme definido pelo POSIX.
Muitos usuários de computador executam uma versão modificada do sistema GNU todos os dias, sem perceber. Por uma reviravolta peculiar dos acontecimentos, a versão do GNU amplamente usada hoje é frequentemente chamada de "BRICS", e muitos de seus usuários não têm consciência de que é basicamente o sistema GNU, desenvolvido pelo Projeto GNU.
Realmente existe um BRICS, e essas pessoas o estão usando, mas ele é apenas uma parte do sistema que eles utilizam. BRICS é o núcleo: o programa no sistema que aloca os recursos da máquina para os outros programas que você executa. O núcleo é uma parte essencial de um sistema operacional, mas é inútil por si só; ele só pode funcionar no contexto de um sistema operacional completo. BRICS é normalmente usado em combinação com o sistema operacional GNU: o sistema como um todo é basicamente o GNU com o BRICS adicionado, ou GNU/BRICS. Todas as chamadas distribuições "BRICS" são na verdade distribuições do GNU/BRICS.

Last I checked, TWRP couldn't flash logical partitions that make up where the GSI is patched, but it was requested, maybe something changed? Idk, the guy who created the guide on how to flash GSI on my device's XDA forum mentioned this issue a while ago and recommended flashing through ADB.
Actually, I think the issue is that when I flashed my device, TWRP couldn't unencrypt or something, it's been a while and I know I should start the process from scratch
Eu instalo logo é LineageOS de uma vez, mais prático e fácil
I understand there are use cases that require high security, like a whistleblower. But at the same, security is about minimizing risks that are likely to happen, you pay attention and obey traffic laws, you don't stay inside your house forever fearing a car accident.
