I'm surprised so many people who probably use Linux use a stock operating system on their phones

Despite efforts to the contrary, PC is still an inherently far more open platform, with better alternatives available.

I'm not sure what you mean? Are you saying Linux is a better alternative to windows than, e.g., LineageOS is to android?

It's true. Camera apps for example are much, much worse than the OEM version.

Unless it's quite shitty.

I've got Ulefone, and the default audio source (software) is dogshit quality. And that's what the camera app uses, unless I use something like Open Camera where I can manually select "Unprocessed" rather than default.

For the idea
Default: https://files.catbox.moe/d2n7sg.flac
Unprocessed: https://files.catbox.moe/xf9ab8.flac

Very obvious, at least with earphones.
