Yea, I’ve checked LineageOS and a few others out, but my phone isn’t supported.
That’s what I get for also hating selfie camera notches/cutouts. Most of the phones I get aren’t popular models. If you know of one for the Nubia Z60 Ultra, point it out.
No, its a decent phone and GrapheneOS has degoogled everything and sandboxed play store if you use it. Storage spaces are sandboxed, camera and mic off switches.
Lots of other security and privacy options, and 5 years of support
Still, it would be giving money to google, which I don’t want to do. Also it has a camera cutout which is annoying, ALSO in my original post I claimed whenever I talk about degoogling, someone ALWAYS suggests a google product.
Its actually a loss for Google, they are selling a good set of secure hardware for a cheap price in hopes of gleaning your data.
But yeah the notch is stupid, especially when icons fall under it.
Thank you for this! Most of those bugs wouldn’t bother me except for the no bluetooth audio. I’m going to keep tabs on this now that I know it’s almost ready.
I actually just yesterday pulled the trigger on deleting all my contacts and calendar info out of google and now they’re backed up to my webdav server.
Google. Been trying to de-google for over a decade. Many of my random asks for alternatives have been answered with “just use google, it’s free”.
Biggest problem is phones because I hate Apple more than Google. Every 6 months or so I look into linux phones, but walk away unimpressed.
I think the best you can do for phones is get one with good hardware and put a degoogled ROM on it

No, I will NOT buy a pixel phone.

There is lineage support now although it is still a bit wonky
