    gollark: - can't install alternative OSes, GUIs, etc
    gollark: You still:- lose updates after two years or so- have the system as a monolithic image file which you have to compile all at once from 40GB of source- can't get root access without hackery
    gollark: Well, it means you don't have manufacturer bloat. That's one problem of many.
    gollark: Android One solves not many of my problems with Android.
