And yeah much like yourself, I used to use custom ROM on my older phones but with cryptographic restrictions when rooting, it's not quite as feasible these days.
I mean, Custom ROMs don't automatically equal root, at least if you can permanently unlock your phone's bootloader. LineageOS for example no longer officially supports rooting, meaning you have to install Magisk and go through an awkward procedure every time you do an OTA update to make sure you don't lose your root access. :mefiant:
Which cryptographic restrictions are those?
I may have to read on this further, effectively I was told that rooting invalidates some cryptographic signing process done. But I'm going off hearsay so I should probably look it up.
