TFW more than half of my phone’s applications is getting thanos snapped and it’s also carrier-locked

real question, you can’t install another os if you have a carrier phone? how come? just asking bc i have one and want to switch to another os
Carriers usually make it more difficult to unlock the bootloader on their versioned phones. Iirc with some you have to submit a form or something similar to the carrier to be able to unlock it
