Why can computers, like even very old laptops can seemingly get OS updates forever, while mobile devices hardly get a few years of updates before getting stuck out of date?
Even with android custom ROMs like Lineage, support eventually ends. Meanwhile, you can just slap on linux onto any old computer and its still getting the latest updates. 🤔
Why not just do the same thing with phones? Forever phone updates? 👀
When I bought my phone 5 years ago, 128G of storage seemed limitless. Now it appears to be a tightening constraint. Should I be able to increase that storage, I wouldn't even be thinking of a new phone. Sadly, Samsung removed storage expansion from their flagships.
I considered this for myself. Seeing the enclosures linked, I might look into that. My wife would probably veto it if it gets in the way or a child can to it apart easily.
