FOSS ROMs

What do you mean?

Rockchip RK3399(S) is the best you can get in terms of freedom. The rest are much of a muchness.

you can absolutely make custom ROMs/OSes

You can't however arbitrarily update the Linux kernel

So you can't make free software OSes.

1. Manufacturers (e.g., Qualcomm, Samsung) won't return your call unless you buy in huge quantities, hundreds of thousands or millions of units.
2. Lack of documentation.
3. Information restricted by NDA.
4. Non-free binaries required for lots of hardware.
5. Generally lording over the market and exploiting their position, to the degree of anti-competitiveness, and as a consequence artificially extending the rein of non-free software in the mobile domain.
6. Astonishingly poor quality of engineering.

open blob SoC

What do you mean?

There are no good phones due to the way the SoC and modem manufacturers work. The best phones, like the PinePhone or PinePhone Pro, are simply the least bad.

Qualcomm QCM6490

No good for free software OSes then :-(

Bigots

Snigger

Pot calling the kettle black.

If you had any evidence

ROFL didn't it occur to you how ridiculous that would sound coming from someone defending religious people?

Russia is strongly associated with communism in many people's minds. Including many Russians'.

This is a straw man and a false equivalence. Not indoctrinating one's kids in a religion does not imply permitting one's kids to be brainwashed by school or the media.

This was a good demonstration of the tendency for religious people to forego reason, thanks.

Ah I see, thanks for clarifying.
