I'm a dev / data engineer. Often I hear the argument of, "but Android allows you to...."

I don't want to. Doesn't matter what the end of the sentence is, I don't want to. I love tinkering, but not with my phone. :D

    Same tbh. I'm a backend dev. I love tinkering. I have a desktop PC to tinker with, if I fuck up my Gentoo install, I'll just boot into Windows or use my Macbook till I get it fixed. If I fuck up the software on my phone, I won't be able to take phone calls for probably a couple of hours (if it's a simple fuckup) to like half a day or more if I manage to fuck up the recovery or something.

    Ends up being that you need a secondary phone to tinker with, but I have little use for two phones, so I don't keep them around much, I'd rather let someone else use my old phones because I don't usually break them.
