Even with android custom ROMs like Lineage, support eventually ends. Meanwhile, you can just slap on linux onto any old computer and its still getting the latest updates. 🤔
Why not just do the same thing with phones? Forever phone updates? 👀

I agree, but the instruction set (what you called a chip architecture, which isn’t wrong at all but potentially confusable with microarchitecture which is how you implement the instruction set architecture) has nothing to do with this. Though Apple does have the ability to make their own instruction set if they want, they and (mainstream) Android currently use ARM, which is also an open standard.
