there are unofficial builds around + you can build for yourself i you have a high-end linux desktop

it is usually a good idea to buy the flagship of the last year at summer. I did that and never regretted it
Fairphone 5, Shift6mq, Oneplus 11, Xperia Pro 1, Motorola Edge 40 pro. Avoid ios like wildfire. I use an iPad and it is buggy, expensive, and full of spyware, really bad if you want any privacy (and it doesn't have custom rom support at all)
you are on the privacy lemmy, i hope you realize that. iPhones are as anti-privacy as possible
in 2017 my biggest concerns were that whether i can play PS3 with broken hand or not (i could)
first time? I was banned from reddit entirely 8 times
i can agree on a few stuff, and can't on some others. I just choose the most private options aviable that still serve the purpose i use them for. Like if you can find something on Google Play, Aurora, F-droid, obviously, it is better to download from f-droid, but if you have a bit more time, it is even better to download from source or even compile it yourself. But it always upsets me when people ask for privacy tips when using ios or windows, like are you joking or what? ditch those lol. And obviously, as a gamer, i wouldn't use purist linux oses, like PureOS, because it can have serious issues with games. But i won't buy nvidia if i want to game on linux, when i can get amd with open-source drivers on distros like Garuda. So i think a reasonable privacy can't hurt anyone, but moving on just the next little step or going into the extremes are both not good ideas
it is actually real
btw some xiaomi devices support edl mode EVEN in hardbricked state so Mi Flash tool might work too
idk but i'd switch to linux for absolutely zero telemetry, or as little as physically possible, while still maintaining a good gaming experience. That's the reason i'm planning to buy an amd build, not nvidia, i don't want propertiary drivers even
on desktop, i'm coming with windows, but i do have good relations with the linux kernel, as i am an android custom rom user for 2 years now, i've been on PerryRice kernel, now on Helios. And there are 114 user apps on my phone, and 32 are closed source, so that means 72% of my android is open-source. And my phone is also rooted and has a custom recovery installed. I use my phone for everything, Windows only for gaming and homework. I already daily-driven Tumbleweed in Virtualbox for a little bit more than one week and it was pretty good, i could handle it mostly, despite many people saying it is hard to use for a beginner. But i'm still very new to linux and if something seriously breaks, i doubt i could fix it by myself, so it would be good if the desktop enviroment didn't delete itself, the boot won't corrupt, and no update would brick my system (ik how to solve bricking on android, but desktop is an another story). So out of Bazzite and Garuda, which is more suitable for me?
You mean nvidia stuff or could be others? there are open-source alternatives for everything that can be considered general use
