For a very privacy leaning site, a whole lot of you have sketchy ass phones that spy on you for basically everything

Yeah unfortunately apart from the pinephone and librem which run a full linux distribution, no other phone can say they don’t sell their users’ data

PinePhone.
Only trouble is it’s not great at the “phone” part yet.

iPhone? How can someone just assume and accept the above?

For a given price range, Xiaomi hardware is probably the best in the world. And MIUI is built to maximise battery life and do more with less RAM and CPU. But this comes at the price of MIUI being very brittle and unable to handle modifications.
On the other hand, Xiaomi has good support for custom ROMs. So you can buy their phones, and immediately switch to a ROM of your choice (at the cost of losing MIUI’s efficiency).

Well, not quite immediately. You have to wait a few weeks for them to unlock your bootloader

72h irc, had a Xiaomi or subbrand of them twice now. Good hardware for the price, just bring your own software.
