People who don’t own a PC at home are morons. To believe that they wouldn’t use it for anything except flashing a custom ROM on a device is pure hyperbole.
OK, what exactly does an average person need a computer for that cannot be adequately done on a phone? Because I do have a few relatives with computers that just gather dust permanently returned off, and they don’t seem to mind.
To create instead of consume. Mobile phone users are all tiktok brains who don’t have more than an ounce of attention and have lost the ability to create things. I know to someone who only consumes consumes consumes, that this would be a really alien concept, but PCs are there for creating things. They also do everything far more effectively than a mobile phone ever would.
Watch movies/shows/YouTube, gaming or pursue virtually any hobby: from photo editing to video production/editing to music production to creative or nonfiction/essay writing to programming to reading to research to studying.
Basically anything at all?
Idk bout you but the Phone is for phone calls and occasionally - IM.
