Not sure if it is like that because I’m in Korea, but on my Samsung S9 Samsung is injecting ads for their new S24 in my notifications. I’ve had the phone for 5 years and this is the first time I see ads in my phone notifications, unbelievable.

      Got a Redmi Note 12 from them for €180, replaced their version of the OS (riddled with pre-installed apps) with the clean one (MIUI) and from a software usability it’s a nice as the old (old, old) One Plus from way before the enshittification trend that it replaced and, of course, it’s light-years ahead in terms of hardware.

      Granted, a little technical knowhow is very usefull to install a clean OS on an Android phone (I used to make Android apps at some point in my career, so that helps).
