    I've heard... Questionable things about the Kagi CEO that make me hesitant to give them money. I just don't really use search engines for much anymore.

    Doesn't help now, but when I buy a new phone I make sure it's comparable with a custom ROM. Anytime I'm using a stock android (or iOS) phone it's unbearable after so many years of custom ROMs. So hopefully you're in need of a new phone soon.

    My last 3 phones are just kind of pain software wise.
    Moto G5s Plus - the Android 8 update (latest official) made it a slow horrible mess with frequent crashes and high battery drain. PixelExperience 11 fixed that.
    Poco X3 Pro - told not to update to MIUI 13 due to instability. Many bugs I had to learn to work around. Left and right microphones reversed in software. Extreme power saving that doesn't even spare alarms.
    Ulefone Armor 24 - UI often crashes (Quickstep) including navigation. In some cases Android version updates don't show up. The legend has it they sometimes provide updates after you e-mail them, stored on the Google Drive. Those updates do a factory reset, because of course they do. Alarm also has a chance of being killed, but lower than with MIUI. Charging with fast charger kills USB communication until reboot.

    I don't do updates anymore. Check the experiences online, and it's all just new bugs, often pretty serious ones. So, if it somewhat works, and it isn't absolutely clear that the next update would certainly fix something important, just keep it as-is.

    TWRP could at least give me some peace of mind. I could just back up everything.
