This 100%. It's crazy to think that ten years ago, Xiaomi phones were considered a thing for enthusiasts: a no-name company that makes cheap phones with good hardware, that are easy to fuck with in terms of customization and developing, their GUI with features that would later be added to stock Android, talking with other phone owners and company workers on their forums etc etc.
They had no official sales here and you had to order it yourself or get it from some shady market.
Nowadays it's nothing but a money grab, tons of ads everywhere, phones are made specifically for the dumbest bydlo, lags straight out of the box, using it feels like a dick on the lips. Not to mention they tried to make a bunch of "brands" so that people that are mad of their xiaomi phone would get another phone.. Also from them (Mi, Redmi, Poco)
