I assume virtually everyone in this place is using some third party ROM. Many of you probably rocking Banana ROM off your Alcatel z657 bought at Boost Mobile in 2012.

But is there any simpleton here like myself who is on stock android? You know, the middle age dude who has “Privacy” as a hobby because he can’t afford or have time for a real one. 😶‍🌫️

      Yup, when I first learned that you didn’t need to root, that developer options + adb was enough to get rid of most bloatware, that was an incredible relief to me, too!
