Very true, the solution is to ditch smartphones which are shit anyway and stick to standard and reliable computers running Linux or OpenBSD or whatever, if they're from 2016 or older even better.

Waiting for Framework to launch that modular smartphone google was "making"

After the massive embarrassment they've made of themselves releasing a desktop machine that has no modular RAM I wouldn't have much hopes on them.
Framework always seemed like a big nothingburger, they get more credit and praise than they deserve, they're not that much into right to repair (as proven with the desktop they released) and they do the bare minimum to not get in the way to make machines serviceable, a barebones laptop design with I/O modules is just the bare minimum user-serviceable-friendly thing to do. Besides these machines use the latests CPUs and tons of spooky mystery proprietary software, I wish they started talking less about mimicking consumer slop tech like smartphones and more about alternative and open hardware such as RISCV.
