Fuck Android.
I hope a consistent, user-friendly alternative that works on all Android phones arrives soon. I've tried so many with an old phone and they're always a pain to install and then don't work quite right. I also don't want to spend $500USD for a phone designed specifically to sidestep Android.
It would help if Android/Google didn't consistently try to block every single thing that would allow you to get rid of Android, but they're never going to allow that.
I hope that something user-friendly and consistent arrives soon. I will ditch Android in a second when that happens.
While I agree with most of the things you said, automatic reboots is a good security feature. And it isn't android that's the problem. It's Google Play Services.
