Google is not entitled to my personal banking information or any other PII! WTF if I go to a store and want to buy I will.

    GrapheneOS is weird. It’s advertised as “privacy- and security-focused” but in reality it’s a great OS for everyone, it’s like a pure version of Android without being too tied to Apple or Google. You can use the Play Store if you have an account, or Aurora if you don’t want one, and F-Droid is there for the weird stuff.

    And what made me switch, it has fucking Android Auto to listen to the music in my car. It’s a bit tied to Google but it’s a huge bonus for me. And for work applications, the Google account is still available but sandboxed.

      It’s great so long as you can either stomach giving google money for a Pixel or buying 2nd hand yeah.
