Ok great reply and agree....
And at the same time I don't buy into it (...if it's really possible to have something better) on a lot of level listed below. You might have same counter points:
❌ The whole idea that "new" is better I don't buy into or that "support" is somehow better... YES maybe was true but now "they know" or are doing the bad work increasingly by design themselves more often in more thigns... and faster than we patch... so maybe still a case for it but by design means at hardware / legislation or other levels we simply cannot reach easily or change. So at some point, let's say Window 11 style "they thought of that" and it's either turn on or off mostly as ultimatum. I admit this is a bit of a theoretical thing but just as insecure as trusting ANYTHING "NEW" from GOOGLE in it's newest PIXEL etc - just seems crazy to trust that to start. Wouldn't be surprise one day literally finding some really unknown stuff in "new" more than "insecure / patched / limited" old - 5 years Old might be best of 2 bad things... New is like "I'm sure they are going to add more bells and whistles leaking at hardware level"
❌ "Security updates" I'm not sure of these phrases and wonder if it's dogma sometimes - why because developers MIGHT just say that without being able to say why - for example why on Android 4 their app was secure but not Android 6 only (or any number...). Developers force the latest for same app essentially because ??? well maybe they were told or think numbers means it's better (probably some minor things) but the fact they don't know for their app is basically the flaw in mentality.
Similar to do whatever update on Windows / Google / Microsoft /
or even you without saying "this flaw / back door" why for old phone is worrying / lacking skill and just feeds "latest is greatest mentality" (...or so it seems I'm not accusing you).
Seems no developer could tell me why their app couldn't work 1 version less yesterday when they restrict it few day later and since my old phone couldn't go up 1 version for example).
1 developer actually downgraded requirement so I know it's possible and fair play to that. I know it may not apply to this OS but it's a pretty popular mentality I think even at the top is tempting to roll with and 100's of people complain for upgrading even good things as it breaks or is unneeded for them.
☑️ "Nothing is secure" made by them I accept, which is why I look to old stuff (with new OS or work arounds) because you can't change the hardware remotely but the new is / will be just too clever, try as you might
❌ and $500 dollar new phones and whole funding of that is terrible economy I think and self-defeating (price maybe wrong so any new price probably is same).
I should say I was thinking of an old Galaxy phone when I was excited to try this OS because I've found few models actually perfect / sturdy and like "Nokia" back in the day with removable battery, extremely low power and basic features / barely HD / less bloat-encouraging etc).
😃 Just saying "Google Pixel" and security makes me smile every time! Doesn't that occur to you too as paradox or simply not to encourage buying / funding them to the same things for future ? ❓
Thanks overall...
