That’s a sure way to get me off of your OS. FAFO I’ve already dropped M$ products.
99% of the people won’t care and continue using it anyway. The other 1℅ isn’t nearly enough to keep any non AOSP OS alive.

If postmarket gets the drivers under control, we can be running relatively vanilla distros on them. There’s already a version of NixOS that leans on postmarkets work to run Nic right on a dozen different phones

You just need a window manager that can handle touch, small form factor, and just a couple of gigs of RAM. And there are already projects doing that.

Yeah I hope that happens. But I’m pretty low on hope these days…
