Base Android? That's ASOP. But the more common "Stock Android" for me is AOSP+GApps, which skins build on and ROMs deviate from (*generally)

Plain AOSP doesn't include a dialer/phone app, camera app, or clock app anymore AFAIK, so for me i'd consider base to be AOSP+GApps

It does, they're just utterly awful and some functionality is broken

Most of them aren't maintained anymore. Like Dialer, which lineageos patches up to work properly on newer versions (https://lineageos.org/Changelog-28/).

I consider it to be AOSP. It's not super usable, it misses some important apps by default. But base means bare minimum to have a launcher and being able to install your own apps, even if that includes providing your own dialer and camera and music player and stuff. AOSP does that well, it's the base, the starting point to make a ROM.

God damn, Lemmy really needs to start supporting polls, just like Mastodon

Yep, same with MBin, it doesn't support them neither
