To do what with it?
Unless you're planning to flash a custom ROM, rooting is not very useful.

Xposed seems like a cool tool
Other than that I have no idea what i am going to do with it

>>61385880
if the warranty is expired you might as well

Sure

It's useful for adaway. Also AFWall+, Lucky Patcher and literally being able to do with android what you should in the first place. "Rooting" shouldn't exist. It's the most retarded thing on android. Phones should give you root permissions ootb. That's like not having root/admin permissions on your PC. Rooting is a must on every device. Might as well use a fucking dumbphone or iPhone.

Install lineage

It's the "install gentoo" response for phones

>Lucky Patcher
What use is that for?

>>61386153
there was no warranty to begin with

Why rooting your phone from GNU/Linux is so hard?

Cracking shit apps.

Also faking in-app purchases. Sometimes apps don't have good alternatives even if they're cucked with DRM.

Finally got to Unlock the bootloader but the phone is in booting animation since about 3-4 minutes

did i fuck up my only phone for ever?
