/e/OS/ was bad with updates for a long time (I had to switch 2022). IodéOS is very good at it, in my experience (I have used all three)

iodéOS lags far behind on Android, Linux kernel, browser engine and other updates too. It's much less behind than /e/ and misleads users less but they still do. They set an inaccurate Android security patch level which misleads users just as /e/ does.

In my case, it was a few months ago, so end of 2025.

I think it's just that they can't possibly support thousands of Android devices. I just don't like that they are not being very clear about it. You would think that buying a phone through Murena would guarantee some kind of support, but it actually doesn't.
