    Beer, cider and bread (leavened with yeast or sourdough at least) are fermented. What was your point again?

    Really important to first, pick that example of content moderation and then point out that he's an Israeli. Maybe think about why you used that example when there are countless oth…

    Very unhelpful comment. Some people don't want to run on anything AOSP. Being able to manage the device with standard linux tooling is a major plus for some people.
