Which doesn’t solve the problem for either me or the person who asked the question, yes I know better than to get a Samsung now, but I plan on keeping my phone for as long as I can regardless
Saying something we already know doesn’t help anybody
+1 for Pixels but -1 for Google’s “support”. You’ll never talk to a human with them. I love GrapheneOS on my Pixel though, and they’re really the only phones you can install it on cause you can re-lock the bootloader on it after installing. CalyxOS (fork of Graphene with slightly less sandboxing) does support FairPhone 4&5 and a few Motorola phones though.
You could just unlock the bootloader
Assuming the bootloader is unlockable
You could just buy an android phone that encourages this. All Pixels, for example.
“Buy a different phone” is not an option for everybody
No, but buy a different one when this one breaks is.

Of course it helps them
Username checks out.
It helps them long term
