Question Absolute Beginner - Hate the new operating system, want to change it, questions - Xiaomi 13 Pro

Background
I've just switched from a P30 Pro to a Xiaomi 13 Pro, I've never rooted a phone in my life.
I loathe the operating system, it doesn't let me open links in the applications that I want to link them in (I'm trying to open Reddit links in an external app and it will not work no matter what I do, just goes to Chrome or the default Reddit app), the game program doesn't let me swipe the taskbar down to view messages, the notch hiding feature doesn't work.
I don't know how much of this is down to MIUI and how much is down to Android updates but it's terrible. This kind of restriction is exactly what I was hoping to avoid. There hasn't been a single thing I've seen so far that represents and improvement.
Specs
CPU - Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Mobile Platform Octa-core Max 3.19GHz
Android version - 13 TKQ1.220905.001
MIUI version - MIUI Global 14.0.22, also listed is 14.0.22.0(TMBEUXM)
Model - 2210132G
Network is Vodafone
Any more specs needed to answer any of these let me know.
Questions
1. Is it possible to root it?
2. If I root this thing is there a way to install the OS from my previous phone, or some other OS that can easily be customised?
3. If it is possible to root it, how do I do it? I assume there's some guide.
4. If I attempt to root it, is it easy to reset it if I **** it up? I had a horrible experience with bricking a PSP trying to root that about 15 years ago and I'm loathe to repeat it.

Xiaomi Eu rom passes safetynet and has the playstore certified without root, if you root it will no longer be the case and will have to use zygisk+Safetynet module.

What's the easiest way to revert to stock? (Remove TWRP, and relock the bootloader)

I'm sorry if this was asked before, but I've been searching for a few hours now and I couldn't find a good solution.
Basically, I installed twrp and magisk on my "Redmi Note 5 A.I Global Version" a few weeks ago, and I recentely sold my whyred, just now I remembered that it has twrp on it, the guy that bought the phone doesn't mind but I don't want him to have any issues with the phone.
The phone is in MIUI 10 10.0.4, it's working great with no boot loops or anything, I just want to remove the costum recovery and relock the bootloader while being certain that the method I will use won't cause him any problems.
Can I just install miui 10 rom on twrp and it will remove twrp? And then relock with mi flash unlock?
Thank you.

Question Unable to flash stock rom and relock bootloader

Hi guys, I recently bought my first xiaomi, I'm naturally confused about some things. This weekend I unlocked the bootloader, installed a custom recovery and magisk. Now I'm regret and I'd like to undo it all.
I already tried flash poco f3 global rom via latest version of MiFlash and failed due to "antirollback check error".
Note: I am on global stable miui version 13.0.2.0, Magisk 24.3 and SKKK's TWRP for android 12.
Help me, please
Have you followed this guide?

If you want unlock and install custom rom based on A12 firmware you don't need to donwgrade (just unlock bootloader ed install whatevwr you want)
you need to start from EDL if you want to install roms that require A11 framwwork
Thank you, so basically since my bootloader is unlocked I can follow instructions and just flash rom via fastboot? Color os doesn't have an option in recovery to install anything.

If you want to install lineage or other roms based on A12, just follow instructions
roms based on A11 tipically require A11.2.10.10 to flash it you should restart via EDL (MSM tool)
I've downloaded the msm tool and see nothing that it is catching
Solved, I had to find the right drivers, thanks for all the help guys

Question TWRP...

Is TWRP available for the x80 pro?
there is not even a safe and official way to unlock the bootloader. Accordingly, there is no TWRP either.

Ok. I only asked because I unlocked my bootloader. I couldn't find any info on TWRP.
Thanks
Are you on Android 13. Any lock with rooting x80 pro with a13?
if you manage to go back to the 1st release 12.0.10.5 (for w10 variant), you can run an exploit to unlock the BL and install magisk
else, I don't think rooting is possible

Question Where to get Stock Firmware?

Got the Mi 11 5G NE recently and I'm wanting to install LineageOS on it as per the installation guide: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/lisa/install
However it says I must be on Android 12 and unfortunately I've already updated the phone to the latest Android 13 MIUI.
Just wondering if there's a reliable place to find the Android 12 stock firmware

MIUI Downloader will point you to the official ROMs
MIUI Downloader - Apps on Google Play
MIUI upgrade app for Mi users.
play.google.com
However, you would need to avoid downgrade protection (it can be done, you will have to download the Fastboot type ROM, unpack tgz, find a bat script inside that does not relock BL, edit the script to remove downgrade protection and use it then to flash manually via Fastboot - not by using MIFlash)
Btw, for any flashing you must first unlock the Bootloader (either for downgrading MIUI and/or for installing the custom ROM)

Ah nvm it went through.
Can/should I re-lock the bootloader after either rooting or installing LineageOS? might just stick with rooted stock, haven't decided yet
