gollark: I think being annoyed about the dropping of a standard and useful I/O feature for dubious reasons is fair.
gollark: This is true. It seems like it's a pretty easy process on Google Pixels and stuff, but due to google bad you then lose the various payment things.

gollark: For me, at least, it would be *worse* than a mediocre Android phone, since it would be more annoying to use ssh/mosh to access my server when I need to fix things, and generally worse to test things on portably.
