This is not a conversation about guns. This is a conversation about items that have withstood abuse that are near unbreakable.

Some items I have heard referenced as AK47 of:

Google Pixel phones, with GraphineOS you can keep using it for a decade or more

Not without cracking it open to swap the battery.

I was under the impression that Graphene OS stops support for Pixel models at the same time as Google does.

Thus us true for security updates 7 years is the stock timeframe.

[โ€“] anguo@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

7 years is only for newer models.

A lot of them have pretty good PostmarketOS support too, so can double down as a Linux server if you ever move on to another devicd

I have a Galaxy S3 somewhere, which is apparently supported by PostmarketOS. Interesting.
