Wish there was a way to make our own phones as opposed to be continuing to be at the mercy of OEMs who build phones without the intention of people running custom roms. Wish it was like PCs where we could pick and choose our own parts without having to buy prebuilts.
there was a project with that in mind, was going to be something like the Framework laptops, but it didn't take off.
Nothing that has expectations of its users ever does. The only reason desktops let you build them is that IBM set a default for modularity to save money, and most consumers ignore it. Trying to change a dumb default to be smarter as with phones will never happen though
