Haven't Samsungs always been trash though? From a software perspective, I mean?
I've never owned one, but I've tried to troubleshoot a few for relatives, and always found their version of Android to be just cunty.

They have always had good hardware I think, but their firmware and apps went total shit years ago. I liked their old ones like the S5 and S4 that had notification LEDs and unlockable bootloaders for custom ROMs
Yeah they have, my uncle had a cheaper Samsung and in the sound settings there was a button for samsung sound settings, which had the exact same settings, but they acted differently. Some acted the same and would also change say a slider on the normal menu and some wouldn't.

Never heard of glance. It's an ai shopping tool? I couldn't make sense of it, but I didn't spend much time either.
I'm trying to think of something more fucked up, but I'm struggling, here.
After reading this, Samsung likely scrambled after the I/O virtual try on feature announcement last month and whored themselves out to whomever would give them these features.
Is there any other brands that make phones with pen support, and doesn't drop support for their phones the moment they come up with a design with a slightly upgraded chip?
Motorola.
SamsungOS has always failed to include a libre software license text file. We do not control it, anti-libre software. You asked for this. You let them do it.
Sure explain that to my grammaw
That's your job. Hiding this won't fix it.
