Yes, Titanium Backup was great, but have you also tried Helium? Also where's Odin3?
I recognise almost all of picture one, but it's been a while since I used them, I should upgrade again. Is it really that much pain now?

Soo, anyone ELI5. If Android is basically Linux, how hard would it be - given drivers are not an issue - so just make a Linux phone and mass produce it? You probably don't have that many apps, but it will be possible to call and/or use messaging apps.
given drivers are not an issue
All the Linux phones run on outdated hardware because that's the main problem.

Reminds me of old cell-phone service options. Free hours, rollover and prepay/pay-as-you-go/contractless etc.
Not sure how pricing/value actually compares, but it does seem like if you want a phone now for emergencies you're going to get fleeced (also required data package). Unless maybe you buy a flip-phone or something. A fiber provider in my area even still charges $40 for a land-line (no idea if it's VoIP).
In my country all you say is kinds the norm... wtf is up with telcos in wherever are you from?

Oh you know, they are given free reign because 🇺🇸
Internet pricing/speed isn't great either.
My country has some of the best internet in the world now that I think of it... just didn't realize none of that was that common elsewere, here you can go to a corner store, as in they sell groceries, and buy a sim card for 1usd, then activate it, and put money on it with cash at that same grocery store, or pay fully online, not so long ago, you didn't even needed an ID to activate those.

Never forget the possibility of very powerful NFC tags which could automate your day!
so will linux foundation drop android using linux kernel?
What's the % of US users that use non-Apple non-Android smartphones, like <0.1% still right? I basically just use phone, SMS, browser and youtube on mine so possible I'll switch over when its tried and tested enough. Some tech experience but not enough with phones, specifically to be confident.
Not sure, but I'd bet it's less than flipphones / dumbphones. For the average person, smartphone and android/apple are probably synonymous.
