Do you root or do you go straight to ROMs?

    Sure, but why root? These days you can flash custom roms without root on a lot of phones (including my fairphone 4)

      I suppose I might not understand the question then. To me having root is more important. I guess I’d say why not? I do not use any functionality that stops working due to SafetyNet or whatever.

        Thats a fair reasoning. Im running lineageos myself (without root) so i can also do a lot of customization or app removal. That and lineageos is freaking good and keeps updating older phones!
