    i felt the same way but i was gifted one recently… it’s still pretty awesome, and it runs android so you can put it in developer mode and sideload whatever you want…

    i expected it to be locked down like apple, but no it’s pretty sick.

      I’m in a similar boat, however I was very disappointed to see that in order to enable developer mode you have to make/sign in with a Meta account and “register” as a developer with them.

        not really their blessing, but yeah you have to create a developer account, agree to be part of a human centipede, and then you’re in…

        there’s even an alternative side loading store call side quest that streamlines it and has a ton of stuff to download…
