A thousand thousand people have said it before me, but it is still fucking insane to me that OEMs can just mandate what is installed and not installed on your device.
I had gone from a Galaxy S5 to a J7 Pro, to a Pixel 4a and now to a 7a. All of them only ever had custom ROMs while I owned them, so I completely skipped out on both this shit, and all other OEMs locking you out from the bootloader.
