From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

MiUi for sure
Oh definitely.
I still hate my old phone for locking ADB behind a Mi account registration and when I wanted to go into the theme settings some stupid marketplace app opened from which I could quit by hitting the back button to het to the actual android theme settings
yeah, also the constant wait times when you install APK... it used to be a decent OS but starting with MiUi 11 they started really enshitifiying big time.
And now they changed the name to HyperOS (my dad has a phone with it installed and is constantly complaining about it)
sounds like a perfect opportunity to use this account to unlock the bootloader and swap out the os for something not enshittified
I thought about doing that but if I remember correctly they wanted some information during account creation that I was not willing to share (it was probably my phone number).
Doesn't matter anymore. My new phone is a pixel 7 on which I immediately installed GrapheneOS
