>>108275963It's fucking Android man. This is like complaining about how 4chan is dying.Good.
>>108275963Yup, google locks down android I will abandon android and get a small laptop like a GPD and put Linux on it
>>108276504You forgot about the part where your decide needs to be able to call and have 5g internet.
>>108277055I have an old iphone I can use for a hotspot, and if I need a new phone there are dozens of them for sale on craigslist
>>108275963So you telling me I should get a new phone that's still "open" before google locks down all subsequent models? Haven't upgraded since 2020~
>>108276504sure, and you can even access your bank acc-ACK
>>108275963this won't do shit. im an insider. there is nothing we can do either. it doesn't come from the people working on the code.
>>108275963>a petitionI'm sure they'll get right on that lmao
The only thing that can be done is to message phone makers and demand a non-google'd alternative, and then to buy from phone makers that don't work with google when/if they refuse.Thank god my GOAT motorola is planning something with Graphene.
>>108279726>demand a non-google'd alternative>the problem is jewgle itself, not the (((remote attestation))) with keystores outside the user's control, not the (((mandatory app signing))) that stops unsigned (i.e. unapproved) software from running, etc.!why are fucking techlets so fucking dumb? you care more about who whips you than the fact that you're getting your ass whipped
