I don't know why this thread is complaining specifically about Chinese OEMs when Samsung has been doing this for years.

I bought my secondhand OnePlus 6T only last year. Installed Linux on it, and I love it. I'm using it as my daily driver.

Sent from my OnePlus 6T and from my bed

FYI: this is CHINA ONLY that they did this. With China being a totalitarianism shithole this was to be expected

I've been running LineageOS on my OnePlus12 for a few months and it's been pretty solid for me. Good battery life, but the camera app isn't quite as robust. Lineage on Waffle

OnePlus is a Chinese company. Anybody who trusted a Chinese company to respect privacy, consumer rights, and ownership freedom is a complete idiot.

Last I hear OnePlus was on the verge of collapse. Not because of this, but because of the mismanagement since carl left. It will probably be absorbed into oppo soon enough https://www.androidheadlines.com/exclusive-oneplus-collapse.
