    yeah, but i’m talking about such minor things like using non stock launcher, custom keyboard etc., anyway custom roms are harder now, OEMs make unlocking bootloader harder, also developing is harder itself with non snapdragon SoCs

      Yes, good points about the locked bootloaders etc. I guess I cannot compare the beforetimes to now for this reason.

      As for the non-stock launchers, even back then the typical users were scared of changing launchers, assuming they would need to do that scary rooting thing and even if not, changing their launcher would surely void the warranty. I’m not kidding.

      Excuse me for this rant-like jaded comment, I guess I needed to vent.
