I’m looking to install a FOSS OS on a 2022 redmi 10C 220333QNY. There are not many candidates for this model, I only found 2 unofficial ones: postmarketos and voltage-3.4-fog-20240608

I don’t want to create an account with xiaomi and I would very mucy like not to install their software on my computer. I run debian 12.9.

Is this possible?

It’s me again there no really way to bypass xiaomi unlocking process of bootloader on phones based on snapdragon .Just install virt-manager with qemu install windows 10 there and make USB passthrought to virtual machine.Also u will need to create mi account then go developer options in miui link ur account in mi unlock and use phone after linking during one week like that otherwise xiaomi server gonna count phone as stolen or else I don’t know if u gonna try unlock phone mi unlock in windows it gonna give u banner to wait for one week and then do next attempt again.Ah and yeah u need insert Sim card and make linking account using mobile internet. And u can find more roms there are actually a lot again here https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=1053816 .Also I offered voltageos cause it have features similar to graphenos about sandboxing Google play services

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
