Google's assault on F-Droid has begun. They are permitting malicious actors to claim other people's apps and take them over. As we've warned, this is going to destroy F-Droid and independent app distribution around the world. Speak out and help stop them at https://keepandroidopen.org. #keepandroidOpen
I’ve had an 11T for 5 years and just got a Redmi Note 15 and it works great.
The phones come with dev mode enabled, you can also just toggle the bootloader unlock from the dev settings (this may cause issues with like banking apps and such).
HyperOS is just a wrapper on stock Android from what I can tell. So you still have to deal with the Google stuff and disable whatever factory bloat they install. I can’t remember if the Xiaomi name brand stuff comes with the boat or not because that was 5 years ago, but the Redmi one did (just like random apps you can uninstall and some additional Xiaomi system apps)

Do they come with play services / play protect / play store shit installed and enabled from the factory or do people enable that later?
