redmi note 9 pro user here. Now on LOS. The default OS is full of telemetry. Even the calculator wants you to agree to personal data being used. Would avoid unless you only want the hardware and the model you want has active community rom support.

Also the Bootloader unlocking process is a PITA. You need a xiaomi account logged in to the phone for it for 2 weeks, then they may allow unlocking the BL but only through their unlocker app that frankly sucks. You may have to sit through the wait period twice if something goes wrong. Ask me how I know.

Without context, to me it seems like you need a new colleague hired who can take some of the random work off your shoulders. This way you can be present in the oh so important meetings and focus on developing the infra.

Hey, I like the thing you linked as much as the next guy, but posting a bare link isn’t going to start any conversations around the topic.

And I hate to see a link post with no comments in my feed personally.

How about you share some of what you think or ask your question so it is something worth interacting with?

Cheers

it’s because you haven’t tried the beer yet

Sadly the voting with wallet approach is only a short term solution imo.

One big player makes the contraversial move, gets some flack then most people forgets. Other players later make the same moves saying this is industry standard now, since the big players are doing it.

Playing the system by workarounds, root hiding, sandboxing tools etc. Will probably work temporarily also until they figure out what people are doing to circumvent the locks.
