Rooting seems to have some benefits like bypassing API integrity, so I want to know if rooting my phone is a good idea? And is it safe? (By that I mean will I break my device?) I don't use Google Play Services nor any banking apps (I use the website) and there's no supported custom ROM for my phone (Xiaomi redmi note 12 S) so I think it might be a solution

If you want a full Linux chroot, yeah. Proot still feels slow. If you are not interested in any of the command line uses of rooting I recommend you checkout shizuku.
