Recently shot myself in the foot after buying a flagship sony, only to find they do not support bootloader unlock specifically on the US variant. It feels like a conspiracy, since it is practically the same hardware and software otherwise.
Still a great phone but I literally purchased it specifically because I thought it had all of these features and an unlockable bootloader
I just got a NAS and downloaded all my GOG and Humble games into it. Didn’t even occur to me that something like this existed. I’m going to have to give it a try soon, since it sounds like Linux through Wine is supported.
