I been on custom ROMs for years without root. But recently, root has moved from magisk to kernelsu, which is a kernel based root solution. Much better than magisk in terms of avoiding detection and required no extra install if your kernel already supports kernelsu. I've started using root features again thanks to kernelsu
What kind of benefits are we talking here.. System wide adblock? What kind of security would I be losing, last time I used a custom rom (don't remember if it was rooted) i lost access to a few payment platforms
Payment platform didnt work due it detecting root. I guess this is now "fixed"?
Ah ok. I am a bit out of the loop.
kernelSu doesn't require you to install or flash anything to get root access if your kernel supports it just install KernelSU app and done you'll just have to give permission within Kernelsu app apps won't be able to request or detect root (like we used to get a popup to grant or refuse root access)it also supports magisk modules
